CAREERS AT LANSING TRADE GROUP

Our Corporate Culture
You are an important part of the culture at LTG. You are a person that will love our fun and challenging work environment. You are a performance-driven risk-taker and will be encouraged to succeed. You appreciate feedback because it contributes to your professional development and growth. You are part of a fast growing organization that recognizes only teamwork will allow us to build upon our success. But most of all, since LTG is an employee-owned company we share your focus on flexibility, family and financial security.

Career Opportunities
As you are aware, the industry we operate within is quite specialized and finding talented people with the required expertise is always a challenge. Therefore, we always appreciate it when individuals with industry experience contact us to discuss potential employment opportunities.

 

Currently we have openings for grain merchandisers in Overland Park, KS and Newark, OH. Please see the job description for more information.

We also have an opening for a graduate trader trainee. This trainee program focuses on recent graduates that are looking to start a career in the agricultural industry. Please see the job description for more information.

You may also complete our job application and forward it to Lea Nickell.

Internship Opportunities
The Lansing Trade Group Summer Internship Program runs for 8-10 weeks from early June to mid-August. During this period you will be exposed to the fundamentals of the commodities business at Lansing's headquarters in Overland Park, KS. You will experience a dynamic working environment with the opportunity for hands-on experience in one of our trading locations. You will witness multiple aspects of our business including buying and selling of commodities, daily analysis of markets and price developments, logistic movements and an understanding of Lansing's internal matrix.

Benefits
You are looking for a company that offers the right benefits just for you.

If you are financially savvy, you'll appreciate our retirement plan that not only allows you to defer a portion of your salary, as other 401(k) plans do, but also requires LTG to match 5% of your salary and bonus which is immediately vested. That feature alone would make it one of the best in the industry, but LTG also contributes another discretionary percentage of your salary as part of our profit-sharing plan to ensure this program is second to none!

In addition to our medical and dental insurance that is provided for on a shared 80/20 percentage basis, LTG also offers medical savings and dependent care savings accounts which allow you to set aside pre-tax money for those necessary and planned expenditures not covered under our other plans.

You will also appreciate the Life Insurance; Accidental Death & Dismemberment Insurance; and Long-term Disability Insurance we offer to all full-time employees. Again, LTG provides benefits that allow you to meet your personal and financial needs.

Finally, our educational reimbursement plan illustrates our commitment to our employees and their professional growth. LTG provides for tuition reimbursement for both undergraduate and graduate courses that are in the best interests of both LTG and the employee.

Since LTG is an employee owned company, we share your focus on flexibility, family and financial security.
