Job Description

Why BIFP:
At Birmingham International Forest Products (BIFP), we're a fast-moving, relationship-first commodities trading firm specializing in wood and building materials. We connect supply with demand and create opportunities and generate profit through smart, timely trades. Our entrepreneurial desk model gives traders real autonomy and accountability, backed by the strength of long-standing industry relationships. We compete hard, support each other, and celebrate wins together. At BIFP, the work is challenging, the rewards are real, and the opportunities to grow are unlimited.
What We're Looking For:
We're adding an experienced, competitive seller-someone who has built strong B2B relationships and is ready to take the next step onto a trading floor. This is a career path for individuals who thrive in a high-energy environment, love building relationships, and want to control their earning potential.
Responsibilities:
  • Build and deepen relationships with mills, distributors, carriers, and end customers
  • Coordinate freight, track shipments, and resolve issues quickly with partners
  • Prospect intelligently-identify new supply sources and customer targets
  • Monitor market trends and opportunities within the forest products industry
  • Grow and own a personal book while collaborating with a high-output team
To Thrive in This Role, You'll Bring:
  • 3-5 years of success in B2B sales or a related commercial role (industrial, building materials, freight brokerage, distribution, or adjacent)
  • Strong problem solving and negotiation skills and comfort making high-velocity calls daily
  • An entrepreneurial mindset and competitive spirit
  • A builder's mindset: proactive prospecting, consistent follow-through, and resilience
  • Familiarity with logistics or supply chain coordination (a plus, but not required)
How You'll Grow
  • Take on more volume, accounts, and product lines as you scale
  • Earn mentorship from seasoned traders and exposure to multiple markets
  • Travel to suppliers and customers to deepen relationships and source new opportunities
  • Unlock uncapped earning potential directly tied to your results

If you want a career where your hustle drives your upside and your results speak for themselves, BIFP is the place to build it!
