Outside Roofing Sales Representative | Wilmington | 50% Profit Split | $150K

Fortitude Roofing | Wilmington, NC

Territory: Wilmington, Northern Brunswick County, and Pender County

Independent 1099 Opportunity | 50% Profit Split | Uncapped Earnings

Build Your Career—and Your Territory

Fortitude Roofing is expanding throughout the Cape Fear region. We are looking for an ambitious, self-directed sales professional to develop roofing business in Wilmington, northern Brunswick County, and Pender County.

The position is advertised in Wilmington because it provides access to the strongest candidate pool and sits at the center of the assigned territory, which will primarily include:

  • Wilmington and New Hanover County
  • Wrightsville Beach, Carolina Beach, and Kure Beach
  • Leland, Belville, and northern Brunswick County
  • Hampstead, Surf City, and Pender County
  • Surrounding communities within the assigned territory

This opportunity is for someone who wants more than another sales job. It is a chance to develop your own market, build a valuable book of business, and create meaningful income through your performance.

Roofing experience is not required. We will teach you our products, systems, and sales process. You do need initiative, confidence, discipline, coachability, and the willingness to create opportunities instead of waiting for someone to assign them to you.

A Company You Can Be Proud to Represent

Fortitude Roofing serves homeowners, builders, and businesses throughout Coastal North Carolina.

Our mission is simple:

Better our communities through our work.

We operate around three core values:

  • Develop Leaders — We want people to become more capable because they worked with Fortitude.
  • Provide an Unmatched Customer Experience — We do not compete by being the cheapest. We compete by being better.
  • Impact Our Community — We believe successful businesses should strengthen the communities they serve.

These values influence how we sell, how we operate, and who we allow to represent Fortitude.

Sell Something Worth Representing

Fortitude provides premium roofing systems for homeowners, builders, and businesses, including:

  • Architectural asphalt-shingle roofing
  • Standing-seam metal roofing
  • FORTIFIED roofing systems
  • Residential and commercial roofing
  • New-construction and replacement roofing
  • Roofing systems designed for coastal conditions

We roll-form our own standing-seam metal panels, specialize in coastal roofing systems, and have a professional operations team responsible for delivering the work our sales representatives produce.

When you meet with a homeowner, builder, or property owner, you can be confident in the company behind you.

What You Will Do

Your responsibility is to create revenue by developing relationships, identifying roofing opportunities, and closing business throughout your assigned territory.

Your work will include:

  • Prospecting for residential and commercial roofing opportunities
  • Conducting neighborhood outreach
  • Building referral and professional networks
  • Developing relationships with homeowners, builders, real estate professionals, property managers, and community partners
  • Inspecting properties and identifying roofing needs
  • Guiding customers through the roofing consultation and sales process
  • Presenting proposals and asking for the business
  • Following up consistently with prospective customers
  • Managing your pipeline and tracking your performance
  • Developing relationships that produce repeat and referral business

Some days will involve customer appointments and proposal presentations. Other days will require creating those opportunities from scratch.

This is not a company-managed, appointment-running position. Fortitude may occasionally provide an opportunity, but you should not expect a steady flow of company-generated leads.

The people who succeed here take ownership of their pipeline.

Focus on Selling—Not Managing Construction

At many roofing companies, salespeople become responsible for materials, scheduling, production problems, collections, and customer complaints after the contract is signed.

Fortitude is built differently.

Our operations team manages job preparation, scheduling, production, project communication, and field execution. This allows you to remain focused on what produces revenue:

Creating opportunities. Building relationships. Closing business. Growing your pipeline.

Sell the project, hand it to a professional operations team, and go create the next opportunity.

What Fortitude Provides

Fortitude gives its sales representatives a professional platform from which to build their business, including:

  • Roofing product and sales training
  • Direct coaching and performance feedback
  • CRM, estimating, presentation, and sales technology
  • Marketing resources and branded materials
  • Professional estimating support
  • Dedicated production and operational support
  • Established company systems and reputation
  • Opportunities across residential, metal, builder, and commercial roofing
  • Advancement opportunities as the company expands

We provide the brand, training, technology, resources, and operational infrastructure. You are responsible for using those resources to produce revenue.

Compensation

This is an independent 1099, commission-only opportunity designed for experienced sales professionals who want their income tied directly to performance and profitability.

  • Annual sales target: $1.2 million in contracted revenue
  • Compensation model: 10/50/50 profit split
  • How it works: After a 10% company allocation, the remaining job profit is split 50/50 between the sales representative and Fortitude Roofing
  • Expected earnings at target: Approximately $150,000 , depending on job profitability
  • Higher-margin sales = higher earnings: You directly participate in the profit you create
  • Accelerators: Additional earning opportunities for production above annual target
  • Earnings cap: None
  • Top-performer potential: $200,000

This compensation model rewards more than just volume. Sales professionals who self-generate opportunities, protect pricing, maintain healthy margins, and consistently close profitable work have significantly greater earning potential.

This is not a salaried position. There is no base salary, guaranteed lead flow, company vehicle, mileage reimbursement, or employee benefits package. This opportunity is best suited for self-directed, experienced sales professionals who are comfortable owning their pipeline and results.

Where This Can Go

Fortitude is expanding throughout Eastern and Coastal North Carolina while growing its residential, builder, commercial, and standing-seam metal divisions.

Someone who establishes a strong track record in the Wilmington territory could earn opportunities involving:

  • Greater responsibility within the local market
  • Builder and commercial accounts
  • Larger territories
  • New-market development
  • Sales leadership
  • Recruiting and developing future representatives
  • Market or team leadership

Advancement is not based on tenure. It is earned through production, leadership, sound judgment, and consistent execution.

Requirements

  • Valid driver’s license
  • Reliable personal transportation
  • Ability to travel throughout the assigned territory
  • Comfortable meeting homeowners and conducting property inspections
  • Comfortable prospecting in neighborhoods and initiating conversations
  • Ability to use mobile technology and CRM systems
  • Professional communication and follow-through
  • Ability to work independently and manage your schedule
  • Financial ability to manage the initial commission ramp

Roofing experience is not required.
