Roofing Project Manager (Storm Restoration) in North Georgia
Robust Roofing Careers · Updated November 2026
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. On the same job, a 70/30 split pays the rep 40% more than the closest competition's 50/50 split, and no roofing company in Georgia or the Southeast comes close. Robust Roofing is hiring a full-time Roofing Project Manager, and the pay is the headline: the structure is unusually generous and significantly better than the compensation most roofing companies offer. In a trade where about one in three roofing companies pay their sales teams commission only (JobNimbus Peak Performance 2025), the base is a real difference too. You will work out of the Johns Creek area in the North Atlanta metro and serve homeowners across North Georgia, with training toward HAAG certification, which Robust provides.
Why this pay plan is widely known as the best deal for roofing reps
Plenty of roofing sales jobs advertise a 50/50 split. Robust Roofing pays a 70/30 split instead: 70% to you, 30% to the company, with no other fees. On the same job, that pays the rep 40% more than a 50/50. Robust also pays a $75,000 per year base, separate from the split. Set those two facts beside the industry data and the gap is obvious: according to JobNimbus's Peak Performance report, 20% is the most common rate among roofing companies that pay commission on profit, so Robust's 70% is more than triple it.
- The split: 70/30, 70% to you and 30% to the company
- Compared with a 50/50: 40% more to the rep on the same job, with no other fees
- The base: Robust also pays a $75,000 per year base
Your interview walks through exactly how the base and the split relate, and you will get straight answers to every pay question you bring.
70/30 versus 50/50, explained
You will hear about the 50/50 split constantly in roofing sales. Under it, the rep and the company split each job evenly, so the rep keeps half. Under Robust Roofing's 70/30 split, the same job pays 70% to you and 30% to the company.
The difference adds up. Because 70 is 40% more than 50, a 70/30 split pays the rep 40% more than a 50/50 does on the same job, and over a year of roofs that gap is large. The roofing commission calculator shows it on your own numbers: put in your current split, and it illustrates what the same year of roofs would pay at 70/30.
Same roof, same homeowner, same hours. The only difference is how the job is split, and at Robust Roofing 70 goes to you. Read the full comparison in 70/30 vs 50/50, or start with what a 70/30 commission split is if the term is new to you.
| Pay structure | Robust Roofing | Typical 50/50 plan | Typical percent-of-contract plan |
|---|---|---|---|
| The split | 70/30, 70% to you | 50/50, half to the rep | A fixed percentage of the contract price; everything outside it stays with the company |
| On the same job | 40% more than a 50/50 | The baseline | Depends on the percentage |
| Base | $75,000 per year | Depends on the company; roughly one in three roofing companies pay sales commission only | |

What a Roofing Project Manager does at Robust
The title means what it says. You manage a homeowner's roof project from the first conversation to the final walkthrough, and you remain their single point of contact the whole way. Nobody hands them off to a stranger after the paperwork is signed, and nobody leaves them guessing about what happens next.
- Meet the homeowner and inspect the roof. Inspections are free. You walk the roof, photograph every slope and explain what you found in plain language.
- Document the storm damage. Clear documentation is the backbone of a fair claim, so you learn to capture hail and wind damage in a way a carrier can follow.
- Meet the adjuster and supplement. With our in-house licensed adjuster beside you, you meet the carrier's adjuster at the property and prepare supplements when an approved scope leaves something out.
- Walk through options and colors. Homeowners choose shingles and colors in the RoofMap homeowner portal, and you make that decision feel easy.
- Coordinate the build. The crew usually finishes in a single day, and you keep the homeowner updated before, during and after the crew is on site.
- Do the final walkthrough. You look over the finished roof together and make sure the homeowner is proud of it.
Training: HAAG certification and a licensed adjuster beside you
You do not need roofing experience to start. Robust provides training toward HAAG certification and comprehensive training, and you learn next to the licensed Property and Casualty insurance adjuster on our staff, a big part of why no other roofing company in Georgia matches Robust Roofing's insurance help. That pairing matters because storm restoration is half roofing and half insurance. You will learn to read a roof for hail and wind damage, photograph and document what you see, follow a claim from the homeowner's first call to an approved scope, and recognize when that scope needs a supplement. New to the industry? Our guide to starting in roofing sales with no experience explains what we look for.
A typical day
Storm season keeps the calendar full, but most days are built from familiar pieces. A morning inspection, walking each slope with a camera. A property meeting with a carrier's adjuster, with our licensed adjuster backing your documentation. An afternoon at a kitchen table comparing shingle colors side by side in the RoofMap portal. A stop at a build where the crew is wrapping up a full replacement before dark. The longer version is in a week as a storm restoration project manager.
Who thrives in this job
We hire for three qualities and train everything else.
- Communication. You can explain a roof, a claim or a schedule change in plain words, and you return calls promptly.
- Follow-through. You do what you said you would do, when you said you would do it, without anyone chasing you.
- Honesty. Robust never waives deductibles, which is illegal in Georgia, so every project is sold straight. If you would rather tell a homeowner the truth than what they want to hear, you will fit here.
Good backgrounds for this role include customer service, classrooms, job sites, restaurants, the armed forces and other sales jobs. Where you come from matters less than how you treat people when nobody is checking.
