Commercial Roofing Sales Representative
Chicago, IL
$80,000–$120,000

Turn Chicago into Your Own Commercial Roofing Success Story While Earning 7% of Every Sale

Chicago is the company's biggest growth market, and ownership wants the person who helps unlock its potential.

An office is already established in Elk Grove Village, but expansion plans are being paced until they bring in a commercial roofing salesperson they trust to own opportunities from first inspection through signed agreement.

You'll join a third-generation roofing business with more than 30 years of history, strong inbound demand, and leadership that wants salespeople capable of closing deals independently.

Success here puts you in a position to help shape the future of the Chicago operation as the company continues to invest in its next phase of growth.

Benefits Stack

• Commission structure discussed around 7% of total project value
• Strong inbound commercial lead flow to supplement self-generated opportunities
• Company truck provided
• Medical, dental and vision insurance available
• Established office in Elk Grove Village near O'Hare
• Direct access to ownership with quick decision making
• Opportunity to influence future hiring and expansion plans in Chicago

Opportunity Overview

This privately owned commercial roofing contractor has operated for more than 30 years and projects annual revenue of approximately $12M–$13M.

The company specializes in commercial and industrial roofing services, with a strategic focus on repairs, coatings, restoration, leak diagnostics, and roof asset preservation. Re-roofs and replacements are completed when necessary, but ownership believes clients benefit most from restoration solutions whenever practical.

Projects range from small service calls through to contracts exceeding $5M and include warehouses, manufacturing facilities, distribution centers, and retail properties.

Headquartered in St. Louis, the company has already established a Chicago office in Elk Grove Village and intends to continue investing in the market as the right people join the business.

Your Role

• Build relationships with property owners, facility managers, and decision makers
• Prepare proposals, references, COIs, and supporting sales documentation
• Maintain accurate activity and follow-up schedules within AccuLynx
• Manage the client journey independently without relying on ownership involvement
• Represent a family-owned business with professionalism, integrity, and strong follow-through

Key Requirements

• Proven commercial roofing sales experience
• Demonstrated history of personally closing commercial roofing projects
• Knowledge of TPO, PVC, EPDM, Modified Bitumen, coatings, and leak diagnostics
• Experience using CRM and proposal management software
• Ability to manage opportunities from lead generation through contract execution
