Job Status: Full Time
Location: Tualatin, Oregon
About Buckeye Pacific
At Buckeye Pacific, commodity trading is what we do best. With more than 40 traders based in our Tualatin, Oregon office, we specialize in lumber, crane mats, and millwork—products that keep the building materials industry moving. By analyzing markets, managing risk, and moving large volumes efficiently, we create opportunities for our suppliers and deliver solutions for our customers.
The Role of a Trader
Our traders are more than market movers—they are also experts at building and managing relationships. Success on our floor comes from pairing product and market knowledge with the ability to cultivate strong partnerships. Every trade relies on trust, communication, and long-term connections with suppliers and customers across North America.
The Trader Trainee Program
Our training program is designed to build the next generation of traders. Trainees spend their first nine months on our logistics team, gaining hands-on experience in how products move from mill to market and how value is created at every step. Alongside this experience, you’ll complete a structured training curriculum—learning the markets, products, and strategies that fuel our business. Once training is complete, you’ll begin working with a trading department aligned with your strengths and ready to begin building your own book of business.
