Commercial Roofing Sales Estimator / Project Manager

Description

Build Relationships. Hunt Opportunities. Win Projects.

We are a growing commercial roofing company serving Nashville and Middle Tennessee, and we are looking for an experienced, motivated Commercial Roofing Sales Estimator / Project Manager to join our team. 

This is not a desk job and it is not a traditional estimating-only position. We are looking for someone who can create their own opportunities, build relationships, identify roofing needs, estimate the work, sell the project, and manage it through completion.

The ideal candidate is a hunter — someone who enjoys getting out in the market, meeting property owners, facility managers, general contractors, building owners, and other decision-makers, and turning those relationships into profitable roofing projects.

What You'll Do

• Develop your own commercial roofing opportunities throughout Middle Tennessee
• Network and build long-term relationships with property owners, facility managers, general contractors, building managers, and other potential customers
• Prospect for new business and generate leads rather than relying solely on company-provided leads
• Inspect commercial roofs and identify repair, maintenance, restoration, and replacement opportunities
• Perform your own roof takeoffs, measurements, roof cores, and field investigations
• Create accurate roof drawings and scopes of work
• Read and interpret architectural, engineering, and roofing plans and specifications
• Review bid documents, drawings, specifications, addenda, and contract requirements
• Identify scope requirements, exclusions, alternates, and potential risks
• Perform accurate takeoffs from plans as well as field measurements
• Participate in pre-bid meetings and discussions and identify questions/RFIs
• Prepare estimates, proposals, and bids to maintain established gross profit margins
• Present proposals to customers and confidently sell the work
• Take a lead from the initial conversation all the way through a signed contract
• Maintain communication with customers throughout the project
• Identify additional opportunities with existing customers and continue developing those relationships
• Maintain a strong pipeline of current and future opportunities

What We Offer

• $100K - $150K annual base salary, based on experience and qualifications
• Company Truck
• Company iPhone 
• Health insurance (medical, dental, vision)
• 401(k) with up to 4% company match
• PTO
• Profit-sharing bonus potential

Why Join Us?

Join a team with a strong reputation, deep roots and a family-first culture. We have been family-owned and operated since 1956, and we believe our people are a big part of what has allowed us to build a lasting business. We value hard work, craftsmanship, accountability and treating our team with respect. 

This is an opportunity to have a significant impact on a growing commercial roofing company. You'll have the ability to develop your own book of business, build valuable customer relationships, and directly influence your success.

If you're an experienced commercial roofing professional who knows how to hunt, estimate, sell, and manage, we'd like to talk with you.

Requirements

What We're Looking For

You may be a great fit if you are the type of person who: Sees a building and thinks, "I wonder when they last replaced that roof."
