Job description

Bell Metals is a Philadelphia-based electronics scrap company specializing in the purchase, processing, and brokerage of e-scrap to recover precious metals — gold, silver, palladium, platinum, and copper. We purchase circuit boards, CPUs, RAM, hard drives, and other electronic components from businesses nationwide, assess material value using advanced lab capabilities, and pay based on precious metals content.

We operate with a commitment to transparency, security, and maximizing customer returns. The global e-scrap market is projected to reach $80B by 2030, and Bell Metals is built to be a leading buyer and processor as that market grows.

The Role:

We are hiring two Business Development Representatives to help build our national sourcing pipeline. You will identify and close deals with businesses that generate electronic scrap — manufacturers, data centers, IT asset managers, and commodity brokers — and convert them into recurring suppliers.

This is a true hunter role. You will own your accounts from first call through first delivery and beyond, with high autonomy and earning potential tied directly to what you source. You will work closely with the President and CEO and leverage Bell Metals’ lab capabilities, financing, and fast-payment reputation as your competitive edge.

Responsibilities:

• Prospect and develop accounts nationwide across electronics manufacturing, semiconductor, automotive, military surplus, and IT asset disposition (ITAD) industries.
• Build and manage relationships with commodity brokers and e-waste aggregators to establish recurring material flow.
• Qualify opportunities based on material type, volume, and frequency; match prospects to the right service level.
• Present Bell Metals’ value proposition — lab-verified assays, transparent reporting, fast payment, and financing options — to operations managers, procurement leads, and asset managers.
• Negotiate material purchase terms and lot pricing within established guidelines.
• Attend trade shows and industry events to build market presence and expand your network.
• Maintain accurate pipeline records in CRM and report weekly on activity, new accounts signed, and volumes delivered.

Qualifications:

• 5+ years of B2B outside sales with a documented track record of meeting or exceeding quota.
• Proven ability to cold prospect, manage a pipeline independently, and close new accounts without daily supervision.
• Comfortable with significant nationwide travel; valid driver's license required.
• Strong negotiation and communication skills with industrial or commercial decision-makers.
• Experience in recycling, metals trading, commodities, ITAD, or manufacturing sales strongly preferred.
• Existing relationships with electronics manufacturers, data centers, automotive, or military accounts a strong plus.

Compensation

Bell Metals offers a competitive base salary plus an uncapped commission structure tied to material volume and gross material value. Strong performers have substantial earning upside well above base. Travel expenses are covered. Full compensation details are provided during the interview process.
