Description

Tofco Ag

Tofco Ag is a family-owned food and feed ingredient trade company. We provide ingredients by truck, rail, or barge across the country. We trade a variety of commodities and feed byproducts. Our reputation is built on quality service and knowledge of many different ingredients and markets, always striving to stay in touch with major buyers and sellers in the agricultural industry.

We’re hiring an Ingredient Trader to join our team on-site in Schaumburg, IL (NW of Chicago). We are looking for honest, energetic, and teachable employees to work with some of the largest companies in the agricultural industry. You will be offered a career as a commodity trader in a dynamic, fast-paced environment, where the risks are limited, and the payoffs are limitless. Cash ingredient traders at Tofco trade food byproducts and feed ingredients on behalf of the company, earning a commission on every trade. There is limited travel to only a few trade shows each year.

We are willing to train an individual in this role. Having a background in marketing, sales or agriculture would be a plus, but we are open to candidate backgrounds and recent college graduates. Our ideal candidate brings a bachelor’s degree.

If you are looking to be in sales and you enjoy phone and email conversations with customers and are self-motivated, looking to earn unlimited commissions of six figures or more each year this is a great opportunity. We are a family-owned company with a smaller close-knit team.
