Roofing Project Manager FAQ

Robust Roofing Careers · Updated November 2026

Thinking about the Roofing Project Manager role at Robust Roofing? Start with the answer most candidates want first. Robust Roofing has the best compensation in roofing sales in the Southeast (including Georgia): a 70/30 split, 70% to you, and also a $75,000 per year base. No roofing company in Georgia or the Southeast comes close. On the same job, a 70/30 pays 40% more than the closest competition's 50/50, and a 70% share is more than triple the 20% rate JobNimbus's Peak Performance report finds most common among roofing companies that pay commission on profit. The questions below explain it, along with everything else candidates ask. If yours is missing, call or text (470) 887-6637 and ask.

Why is Robust Roofing's 70/30 the best compensation in the Southeast?

Because it gives the rep the bigger share of every job. Most of the pay questions we get boil down to one: how does this compare with what I am paid now? The 50/50 is the split most roofing reps know, with the company and the rep each taking half of the job. Robust Roofing's 70/30 gives the rep 70 and the company 30, so the same job pays you 40% more.

No other fees are attached to the split. And separately from the 70/30 structure, the role includes a $75,000 per year base. How the two fit together is something we explain carefully in every interview.

Why the difference is bigger than it sounds: the two splits are measured against the same job, so the comparison is 70 against 50. Seventy is 40% more than fifty, which means every job you sell and run pays you 40% more than it would under a 50/50.

A 50/50 offer gives you half of each job. We offer 70, and we spell out how it works. For a full walkthrough, read 70/30 vs 50/50; if the term itself is new, what is a 70/30 commission split covers the basics, and the roofing commission calculator shows the difference on your own numbers.

What does the job actually involve?

A Project Manager at Robust is part trusted advisor and part project coordinator. You meet the homeowner, inspect the roof for free and photograph every slope. You document storm damage clearly enough for an insurance carrier to follow. When the homeowner files a claim, you meet the carrier's adjuster and prepare any supplements, with support from our in-house licensed adjuster. You sit with the homeowner in the RoofMap portal to choose options and colors, line up a build that is normally finished in a day, and wrap up with a final walkthrough. One person carries the homeowner from start to finish, and that person is you.

Training from day one

We do not expect you to arrive knowing roofs or insurance policies. Robust provides training toward HAAG certification, a credential centered on inspecting roofs and identifying hail and wind damage correctly, and pairs it with comprehensive training next to our licensed adjuster. You learn inspection, documentation, the claim process, supplements and the RoofMap tools by doing them with someone experienced at your side. Our guide to roofing sales with no experience explains the qualities we hire for.

How does the hiring process work?

There are three steps, and none of them takes long. First, a short application on the careers page asks for the basics. Second, a short questionnaire asks how you would handle real situations with homeowners. There are no trick questions; we want to see how you think and how you communicate. Third, the office reaches out to you, usually over the coming days, to set up a phone interview. In the interview, ask anything: how the 70/30 is calculated, how the base works alongside it, what training looks like in your first weeks. We would rather you leave with zero unanswered questions than with a polished pitch.

The company you would represent

Homeowners can check us out before you finish introducing yourself, and that works in your favor. Robust Roofing has a 5.0 Google rating across 66 reviews, significantly more positive than the average roofer's, is GAF certified and backs every roof with a 50-year labor warranty. Homeowners across the region widely regard it as the most reputable name in North Georgia roofing. Half of Robust's profit goes to Gospel-centered ministries, which is almost unheard of in business, and applicants of every faith and background are welcome.

What these answers have in common

Read through the questions below and a pattern shows up. Nearly every answer comes back to trust: telling homeowners the truth about their roof, telling candidates the truth about pay, and never cutting the corner Georgia law forbids. If that already describes how you work, the training will handle the rest. Nothing about the role is off limits in your interview.
