Description
Roofing sales isn't on that list. It never will be. This career is built on showing up, reading people, and earning trust face-to-face — skills no model can replicate. If you're looking for a career that compounds with experience instead of competing with software, this is it.
Key Responsibilities
This is a field role. You'll be in the neighborhoods, meeting homeowners, identifying damage, and guiding them through the insurance claim and restoration process. It's a consultative, relationship-driven career — not a call center, not a desk, not a quota sheet.
What You'll Do
- Canvass storm-affected neighborhoods to identify damage and introduce Premier's services
- Meet with homeowners, inspect damage, and build enough trust to earn a second conversation
- Educate homeowners on their options and support them through the insurance process
- Schedule inspections and coordinate with our production team through project completion
- Participate in weekly training and ongoing skill development
Skills, Knowledge and Expertise
To help you ramp up, we provide a startup draw of $500 per week for your first 8 weeks while you're building your pipeline. After that, your earnings reflect your production.
Realistic earning range: $80,000–$110,000 in a productive year. Top performers earn more. (First-year averages coming — ask your recruiter for current rep data.)
The upfront cost to get started is straightforward: you need a valid driver's license and reliable transportation. That's it.
Training
We don't put people in the field unprepared. You'll go through paid classroom onboarding, field shadowing, and structured skill development in roofing fundamentals, insurance process, and sales technique. 70% of candidates in our research said hands-on training was extremely important to them before joining a company like this. We built our program around that expectation.
Schedule
You control your schedule. Most reps work full-time hours during storm season and scale back in slower months. Evenings and weekends are sometimes necessary depending on homeowner availability and market conditions — that's the reality of field sales. It's also why the flexibility to work around your life is built into the model.
Benefits
- Coachable. You don't need experience — you need to be willing to learn and apply feedback.
- Comfortable with people. This career is built on conversations.
- Self-directed. There's no manager setting your daily schedule. You own your output.
- Physically mobile. You'll be outside, in neighborhoods, sometimes on rooftops. A valid driver's license and reliable vehicle are required.
- Resilient. Rejection is part of the job. So is the income that comes from pushing through it.
- Sales experience is a plus. It's not a requirement.
- 20+ years in business. Financially stable, nationally established.
- A career path that compounds. Reps who stay build real income growth year over year.
- Human skill, not software. The core of this job — reading people, building trust, solving problems — is exactly what automation can't replicate.
- A company that started from nothing and built something real. That's still who we are.
If the income opportunity is clear enough, the structure makes sense, and you're willing to do the work — apply. Your recruiter will reach out to walk through first-year expectations, market-specific data, and what the first 90 days look like.
This is a 1099 independent contractor position. Compensation is commission-based. The startup draw is a recoverable advance, not a guaranteed salary.

About this role
Premier Roofing is hiring field sales reps to work storm-damaged neighborhoods in Charlotte, canvassing for damage, meeting homeowners, and guiding them through insurance claims and roof restoration. You'll inspect properties, build client relationships, and coordinate with the production team — it's consultative work that happens face-to-face, not behind a desk or phone. The role includes paid onboarding covering roofing fundamentals, insurance processes, and sales technique, plus field shadowing before you work independently.
This is a 1099 commission-only position with a $500 weekly draw for your first eight weeks while you build your pipeline. After that, your income depends entirely on projects you close, with realistic earnings of $80,000–$110,000 in a productive year. You'll need a valid driver's license and reliable transportation; otherwise, no upfront costs. The schedule is flexible — you control your hours and can scale work around storm seasons and your life, though evenings and weekends sometimes come with the territory of field sales.
The company values coachability and self-direction over experience. You need to be comfortable with rejection, willing to learn from feedback, and able to work independently in neighborhoods and sometimes on rooftops. Premier has been operating for over 20 years with 14 locations nationwide, so there's stability behind the opportunity. If you're looking for income tied directly to your effort and a career built on human skills rather than competing with automation, this role offers that structure.
