Full Job Description
The Role

This is a consultative, inspection-driven sales role, not a high-pressure or door-to-door position.

You will serve as the primary point of contact for homeowners seeking expert roof evaluations and replacement guidance within a defined local territory. Leads come from a mix of inbound opportunities, follow-ups, referrals, and targeted outreach.

You'll work with a wide variety of roofing systems-including cedar, slate, tile, and high-end architectural roofs-with commissions on individual jobs often reaching five figures.

Important note: Climbing steep or specialty roofs is not a core expectation. Inspections are primarily completed using drone technology and ladder access at eaves and transitions, especially on cedar and slate systems where safety is critical.

Key Responsibilities
      • Conduct professional roof assessments
      • Drone inspections
      • Ladder access at eaves, transitions, and perimeter areas
      • Identify roofing systems at or near the end of their useful life and clearly explain:
        • Functional limitations and replacement considerations
        • Repair vs. replacement decision-making
        • Insurance restoration options when applicable
        • Educate homeowners on premium materials, upgrades, and long-term value
        • Present estimates, proposals, and recommendations in a clear, professional manner
        • Manage and develop your assigned territory and prospect pipeline
        • Coordinate with production, administrative, and management teams
        • Build long-term relationships with homeowners and referral partners


Who This Role is For
    • Has experience in roofing, exterior construction, or insurance restoration sales
    • Is comfortable working with high-end and sophisticated clientele
    • Prefers education-based, credibility-driven selling
    • Is professional, articulate, and presentable
    • Can "talk the talk and walk the walk" in front of discerning homeowners
    • Wants long-term income growth, not quick churn
