You’ve bought things before. Any industry. You’ve personally sourced goods or materials, negotiated with suppliers, and placed orders. You’re a buyer, not an analyst.
You can negotiate. You’re comfortable discussing price, terms, and delivery with suppliers. You can think on your feet and hold firm when needed.
You’re a self-starter. You don’t wait for instructions. You see what needs to happen and you go do it.
You’re comfortable with ambiguity. We’re a startup. Processes are being built, not inherited.
You learn fast. The scrap aluminum market will likely be new to you.
You have energy. You pick up the phone, visit the yard, make the offer.
