Position summary

The Project Supervisor owns roofing and exterior projects from contract to completion crews, materials, schedule, quality and the homeowner. You are the bridge between our sales team and our production crews, and every project that lands on your desk is yours until it's done right.

This is a leadership seat, not a labor one. You are not on a roof swinging a hammer all day. You are the reason the job finishes on time, passes inspection the first time, and the homeowner calls us again.
