Roofing Project Manager Jobs in Canton, GA

Robust Roofing Careers · Updated November 2026

Canton, the Cherokee County seat on the Etowah River, has a wave of subdivision roofs reaching the age where storms do real harm. Robust Roofing is hiring a full-time Roofing Project Manager to serve Canton homeowners. 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. The 70% share alone is more than triple the 20% rate JobNimbus's Peak Performance report finds most common among roofing companies that pay on profit.

From mill town to golf communities

Canton grew up around the Canton Cotton Mills, founded in 1899 on the Etowah River and the city's main employer until 1981. Today most of its roofs sit in subdivisions built from the late 1990s on. BridgeMill, the big golf community, has a median build year around 2001, River Green dates from the mid-2000s, and Great Sky, Laurel Canyon, Soleil Laurel Canyon, Governors Preserve and Towne Mill carry 2010s and 2020s construction. Harmony on the Lakes, Woodmont Golf and Country Club and Prominence round out the map. That puts a large wave of original shingle roofs at 20 to 27 years old, and HOAs are nearly universal.

Canopy, wind and hail

Heavy pine and oak-hickory canopy over lots in River Green, Governors Preserve and Laurel Canyon makes limb strikes and needle-clogged valleys routine findings, so a Canton inspection means looking closely at every slope and every valley. Canton has seen 5 days with 0.75 inch or bigger hail since January 2025 according to radar estimates and Weather Service reports, and 2 of them hit 1 inch or more. The largest, about 1 inch, fell on June 14, 2025. On July 28, 2026, radar estimated 0.75 inch hail with 50 mph wind over the 30115 zip.

Put an aging roof under a storm like that and the homeowner has questions. More storms mean more of those homeowners, and they need someone who will answer honestly and then see the project through.

How the role is paid, and why reps call it unusually generous

There are two facts to know. The split is 70/30 in your favor, with no other fees. And separately, the role carries a $75,000 per year base, well above the $51,170 median annual wage for all occupations in the Atlanta metro (U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, May 2025). The interview walks through how the base and the split fit together.

The contrast is the 50/50 split many roofers use. On the same job, a 70/30 split pays the rep 40% more than the closest competition's 50/50 split, because the rep keeps 70 instead of 50.

Why the bigger share matters: the split repeats on every roof you sell and build, so the gap between 70 and 50 shows up on every Canton job you run. Robust Roofing puts the larger share with the rep.

What you would handle

You are the homeowner's single point of contact from beginning to end. That means meeting them, running a free roof inspection with photos, documenting storm damage, writing the repair scope beside our in-house licensed adjuster, meeting the carrier's adjuster and submitting supplements. It means sitting down in the RoofMap homeowner portal to choose options and colors, coordinating a build that most often finishes in one day and closing with a final walkthrough. Because nearly every Canton homeowner lives under an HOA, the color conversation often starts with what the architectural review allows. Canton homeowners can learn about us on our Canton roofing page. For the inside view, read a week as a storm restoration project manager.

Who we are looking for

You do not need to have worked in roofing. Robust provides everything from training toward HAAG certification to hands-on training with its licensed Property and Casualty insurance adjuster (no other roofing company in Georgia matches Robust's insurance help), and we hire for communication, follow-through and honesty. Robust never waives deductibles, which is illegal in Georgia, so the way you sell will always be the honest way. Start with roofing sales with no experience, then read why work at Robust Roofing. The company is GAF certified, rated 5.0 across 66 Google reviews, significantly more positive than the average roofer's, and half its profit supports Gospel-centered ministries.
