Outside Sales Representative

advocateconstruction
Chicago, IL Full Time
POSTED ON 5/19/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 7/19/2026

The Mission: $80k–$150k in Year One

Most "sales jobs" offer a cap and a cubicle. We offer a “no-cap” bonus structure that puts six figures within reach in your first 12 months and we support  you to doing this with a best-in-class company truck program and a base salary that keeps the lights on while you invest your energy into building a sales pipeline and book of business. At Advocate Construction, we don’t just fix roofs; we build careers for people who are tired of trading their time for a flat hourly rate.

Why This is Different:

We aren’t looking for "roofers." We are looking for closers, competitors, and entrepreneurs. Whether you’ve done solar, pest control, retail or none of the above—if you can talk to people and handle a "no" until you get a "yes," we want you.

  • Zero Industry Experience? No problem. Our training program gives you the foundation and opportunity to take your career as far as you are willing.
  • Hard Work = Massive Pay: Monthly, quarterly, and annual bonuses plus a profit-sharing accelerator.
  • The "Advocate" Life: 401(k) match, medical/dental/vision, and incentive trips to places you actually want to go.

What You’ll Do:

This is a boots-on-the-ground, face-to-face role. You aren’t sitting behind a desk waiting for the phone to ring.

  • Hunt: Operate within storm-affected areas and meet homeowners where they live.
  • Close: Build credibility and trust one customer at a time by assessing exterior damage and onboarding new customers.
  • Consult: Learn to work within a team to provide comprehensive solutions to exterior construction needs; functional or cosmetic, cross-sells and upsells. 
  • Grow: Career progression is built on merit. Master each training plateau with urgency to earn more responsibility and income upside.

The Ideal Profile:

  • You have a competitive spirit (ex-athletes, veterans, and former servers/bartenders usually crush it here).
  • You have a valid driver’s license and a clean-ish driving record.
  • You are physically capable of lifting 50 lbs and navigating a roof.
  • You’re a "people person" who can build rapport in 30 seconds or less.

The Pay & Perks:

  • On-Target Earnings: $80,000 – $150,000 (Top performers exceed this).
  • Guaranteed Base: Stability while you build your pipeline.
  • Growth: We promote from within. Our leaders started exactly where you are.
  • Benefits: Health, Dental, Vision, 401(k) with match, PTO, and 9 paid holidays.
  •
