Vacant job

Do you have a passion for meeting people, creating business, and sharing your forestry expertise? Do you enjoy the idea of having nature and the forest as your workplace? Then this position could be the perfect match for you! We invite you to become part of our work for a sustainable future as a timber buyer. Here you will have the opportunity to not only develop long-term business relationships but also share your forestry knowledge with our forest owners!

With us, the forest, people, and businesses grow.

We are now looking for two timber buyers who want to be part of our team in the Local Purchasing function. As a timber buyer, you will play a central role in promoting active, profitable, and environmentally friendly forestry among private forest owners. In this role, you are a reliable partner who shares valuable advice and innovative solutions that not only make it easier for landowners but also create an enjoyable and successful forest owner experience.

You will become a valuable member of our team where we work together to achieve a high quality of service for our customers. At the same time, the role will require independent work that includes fieldwork, meetings with forest owners, and office work. You will operate within an established geography with a stable and well-established customer base that is familiar with our services. The job offers a high degree of flexibility, allowing you to plan and manage your workday.

Your daily work involves active contact and dialogue with private forest owners. By listening and understanding their needs, you will be able to offer our versatile services in areas such as logging and forest management. You are also an important cog in the internal process that ensures our commitments to customers are fulfilled as agreed. Thus, you become the link between our company and the forest owners, making your role both rewarding and significant.

The purchasing areas we are looking for are Årjäng and Arvika and you will have your office placement either in Arvika or Billingsfors. You will report to the Market Area Manager for Local Purchasing.

Who are we looking for?

We are looking for someone with a solid grounding in the forestry sector who is motivated and feels comfortable making business deals. You enjoy reaching out to new people and have the ability to build trust and confidence. We highly value your interest in service and building long-term relationships!

Skills and qualifications we believe you have:

• Forestry education and/or professional experience in the field
• Sales experience
• Ability to function well in social contexts with good communication skills
• A drive to achieve goals and results
• Good computer skills and administrative abilities
• You are fluent in Swedish, both spoken and written
• Driver's license B

What we offer

With us, you will be part of our diversity-promoting work culture that helps you explore new perspectives and develop professionally. Together with your colleagues, you will contribute to a more sustainable world, as we believe that everything made from fossil-based materials today can be made from a tree tomorrow. To keep you safe at work, we support your physical and mental well-being.
