About The Position
As a Wheel Core Buyer, you will be responsible for actively sourcing and purchasing automotive wheel cores from individual vendors, shops, recyclers, and suppliers across a designated region. This is a field-based, sales-centric role that requires daily travel, in-person vendor visits, price negotiation, and deal execution.
This position is not administrative in nature. The role functions as a road-runner Buyer, focused on building relationships, negotiating purchases, and securing wheel cores to support remanufacturing operations within the Collision Business Unit.
The ideal candidate is comfortable being on the road daily, has strong sales instincts, and thrives in face-to-face negotiations.

- Build and maintain strong vendor relationships to ensure a consistent pipeline of wheel cores.
- Secure competitive pricing while maintaining quality standards and supply continuity.
- Coordinate payment and logistics, including scheduling pickups or deliveries to remanufacturing locations.
- Actively prospect new vendors through market research, cold outreach, and on-site visits.
- Represent the company professionally as the primary point of contact for regional wheel core buying.
- Maintain accurate records of purchases, pricing, vendor interactions, and deliveries.
- Monitor regional market trends, pricing fluctuations, and competitor activity.
- Partner with internal procurement, logistics, and remanufacturing teams to align purchasing with operational needs.
- Troubleshoot and resolve issues related to availability, quality, delivery timing, or vendor concerns.
- Support additional regions or buying needs as business demands require.
- Around 25% overnight travel.
Skills And Experience
- Minimum 2 years of experience in automotive repair, sales, procurement, or core/material buying, preferably automotive-related.
- High School Diploma/GED Required
- Demonstrated success in face-to-face sales or purchasing negotiations.
- Familiarity with automotive cores, specifically wheels/rims (remanufacturing experience a plus).
- Strong interpersonal skills with the ability to build rapport quickly.
- Comfortable working independently and managing a travel-heavy schedule
- Strong organizational skills to manage multiple vendor relationships and transactions.
- Proficient in Microsoft Office and basic purchasing or CRM tools.
