Join us in shaping and leading the industry

Traders at our operating companies are a special breed. Do you have what it takes to thrive and commit to a career with us?

We're invested in your success

Other trading and logistics firms have high turnover rates because they throw new hires to the wolves. Using our mutual selection process, our trading companies each employ an extensive training program for ideal candidates, connect new hires with career mentors, and empower staff with cutting edge tools. When you succeed, we succeed. We'll achieve greatness together.

A career path, not just a job

When you join one of our operating companies as a trader, you're embarking on an accelerated growth path. Many jobs can only take you so far – you need to leave the company to advance your career. Our experienced lumber traders and employees average over 18 years of tenure with FCTG. They grow with us and experience consistent growth in experience and income.

We Work Hard and Play Hard

We believe in an ideal balance between work and life commitments. We make it a priority to provide our employees with balanced time and energy outside of work to connect with their family and social circles.

Directly influence your salary

Our goal is to allow our traders to have no upside limits, or as we call it, to create an atmosphere where you can "eat what you kill." We will provide the tools and resources necessary to be successful, but it is up to the individual and their respective team to work hard and create their success. This includes no salary limitations. So, if you want to work someplace where you can control your destiny, you've come to the right place.
