At Mercatalyst, we turn closeouts and surplus products into amazing retail moments — the kind of deals you see on MorningSave.com, SideDeal.com, Meh.com and even daytime talk shows like Kelly Clarkson and The Sherri Show. We’re looking for an experienced off‑price buyer who thrives on finding incredible deals, building vendor relationships, and negotiating win‑win outcomes. This is a high‑impact role where you’ll have the freedom to run your business, supported by a strong team that handles merchandising, logistics, and marketing so you can focus on sourcing and negotiating. What you’ll love about this role: • Autonomy: You own your category and chase the best deals across all product categories; it is like running your own business. • Remote flexibility: Work from anywhere in the U.S., with optional HQ access in Carrollton, TX. • Earning potential: Competitive base + uncapped commissions. • Fast‑moving environment: Every day brings new opportunities to turn excess inventory into customer wins. What we’re looking for: • Deep experience in closeout, liquidation, or surplus buying (retail or e‑commerce). • Strong retail math skills and the ability to assess margins and risks on the fly. • A love for negotiation, curiosity about products, and the drive to move quickly on opportunities. Core Qualifications • Surplus/Closeout Expertise: Proven experience in liquidation, surplus, and closeout buying • Retail Math Proficiency: Strong understanding of retail metrics, margin calculations, and inventory turn analysis • Product Knowledge: Broad understanding of consumer product categories and market dynamics • Negotiation Skills: Demonstrated ability to negotiate with conviction and assess deal risks • Adaptability: Comfortable with change, ambiguity, and fast-paced decision making Stand out from the rest with these qualifications: E-commerce Business Ownership (eBay/Amazon/Walmart) or Wholesale/Distribution Liquidation Experience: • Experience sourcing products and managing supplier relationships • Understanding of online marketplace dynamics and pricing strategies • Knowledge of inventory management, fulfillment, and logistics • Familiarity with product photography, listing optimization, and customer demand analysis • Experience calculating profit margins, ROI, and managing cash flow If this sounds like you (or someone you know), let’s connect.
