Roofing Project Manager Jobs in Marietta and East Cobb
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. No roofing company in Georgia or the Southeast comes close. Marietta asks a Project Manager to be at ease in two very different settings, sometimes in the same afternoon: historic homes inside the city and decades of East Cobb subdivisions outside it. Robust Roofing is hiring for that role. The share is generous by any measure: 70%, more than triple the 20% most common among profit-based roofing commission plans in JobNimbus's Peak Performance report, and 40% more than the closest competition's 50/50 pays on the same job.
Two housing stocks under one name
Inside the city, the Northwest Marietta Historic District, 230 acres along Kennesaw Avenue, Church Street and Whitlock Avenue and on the National Register since 1975, holds some of the oldest roofs in Cobb County, along with Oakton and Keeler Woods. East Cobb carries a Marietta mailing address but mostly sits in unincorporated Cobb County, and it is 1970s to 1990s subdivision country. Indian Hills, a late-1960s golf community of 1,680 homes, sits alongside Chimney Springs, Wellington, Hamilton Grove, the Atlanta Country Club area and dozens of swim-tennis neighborhoods with mandatory HOAs. Census-based estimates put the city's median construction year at 1987, and hardwood canopy is heavy across East Cobb.
The two settings call for different conversations. In the historic district, a homeowner may care as much about how a new roof looks on an old house as about the storm itself, and you give that conversation the time it deserves. In East Cobb, the HOA's architectural review often shapes the color choice.
An honest look at the storm record
We would rather tell you the truth than oversell a territory. Marietta shows 3 days of 0.75 inch or larger hail since January 2025 in radar estimates and Weather Service reports, none of them reaching 1 inch. The largest was just under 1 inch on June 27, 2025, and the most recent came on September 5, 2026. That is a lighter record than parts of north Fulton or Cherokee County.
Two things still hold. Older roofs do not need a record storm to suffer, and a homeowner whose roof was hit wants the same careful inspection whether the storm made headlines or not. And because the role covers North Georgia, your work follows the weather wherever it hits hardest.
Pay, in plain terms: the best compensation structure in the Southeast
- Split: 70/30, with 70% to you and 30% to the company
- Versus a 50/50: 40% more on the same job, with no other fees or deductions
- Base: Robust also pays a $75,000 per year base, well above the $51,170 median annual wage for all occupations in metro Atlanta (U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, May 2025)
The interaction between base and split is a conversation for the interview. What is worth understanding now is the difference between a 70/30 and the 50/50 that is common across roofing sales generally. A 50/50 gives the rep and the company equal halves of the split; a 70/30 gives the rep 70 of every 100 dollars that are split.
The difference is bigger than it sounds. Seventy is 40% more than fifty, so on the same East Cobb roof, figured the same way, a 70/30 pays the rep 40% more than a 50/50 does. On a large, complicated roof that gap is real money, and it repeats on every job you sell and build.

Two permit offices, one point of contact
Inside city limits, Marietta's own building office issues permits. Most East Cobb addresses are unincorporated, where Cobb County issues them instead. Robust sorts out which applies to each roof, and you keep the homeowner informed so the difference never becomes their problem. Homeowners can read about our work on our Marietta roofing page.
What the job involves
Meet the homeowner. Inspect the roof for free and photograph it. Document any storm damage. Write the repair scope alongside our in-house licensed adjuster, meet the carrier's adjuster and submit supplements. Walk through options and colors in the RoofMap portal. Coordinate a build that is usually done in a day. Finish with a final walkthrough. Through all of it, you are the one person the homeowner calls. See a week as a storm restoration project manager.
Training and character
You do not need roofing experience. Training is comprehensive and builds toward HAAG certification, which Robust provides, and a licensed Property and Casualty insurance adjuster on our staff is with you as you learn. We hire on communication, follow-through and honesty, and we never waive deductibles, which is illegal in Georgia. Robust is GAF certified and offers a 50-year labor warranty, where most roofing contractors stand behind their installation for 1 to 10 years. It also gives half of its profit to Gospel-centered ministries, something almost unheard of in business. Learn more in roofing sales with no experience and why Robust is worth joining.
