Job description

SHAMROCK ROOFING & CONSTRUCTION

Roofing Project Manager-Outside Sales | Des Moines

1099 Commission-Based | Average $70K–$150K+ | Top Performers $200K+


Important: This is a 1099 commission-only position. There is no base salary. Top performers thrive here — but success requires self-motivation, consistent prospecting, and comfort with door-to-door sales.


About Shamrock Roofing & Construction

Shamrock Roofing & Construction is one of the Top 40 Roofing Contractors in the United States and a $70M brand built on reputation, community trust, and results. Founded in 1977 and headquartered in Kansas City, we've grown rapidly across the Midwest — with active operations in Missouri, Nebraska, Oklahoma, and Arkansas. We proudly hire Veterans and are committed to building long-term careers for the right people.


The Opportunity

This is a high-income sales role for someone who is genuinely motivated by uncapped earning potential and building their own book of business. You'll be out in the field — knocking doors, building relationships with homeowners, and guiding them through the roofing process from inspection to project completion. Shamrock provides the brand, systems, training, and back-end operational support. You bring the hustle.


This is not a desk job. If you thrive on face-to-face selling, love the freedom of working your own territory, and want to earn what you're actually worth — this role is built for you.


What You'll Do

  • Generate your own leads through door-to-door canvassing, storm outreach, referrals, and community networking
  • Conduct roof, gutter, and siding inspections and document damage accurately
  • Educate homeowners on roofing solutions and Shamrock's services
  • Prepare and present project proposals, close sales, and collect signed contracts
  • Manage projects from contract signing through completion, serving as the homeowner's primary point of contact
  • Deliver excellent customer service throughout the entire project lifecycle to drive referrals and repeat business


What We Offer

  • Uncapped commission structure — your income is determined by your effort and results
  • Average earnings of $70,000–$150,000+ annually; top performers earn $200,000+
  • Training pay opportunities up to $5,000 through bonuses and commissions during onboarding
  • Comprehensive training program — no roofing experience required, but sales experience is a plus
  • Strong back-end operational support so you can focus on selling, not logistics
  • Bonus opportunities and sales competitions throughout the year
  • Leadership and advancement opportunities for top performers
  • Company trucks may be available during business hours for qualified drivers (21+ with approved MVR)
  • We proudly hire Veterans


What Success Looks Like in Your First 90 Days

  • You've completed Shamrock's training program and closed your first independent sale
  • You've established a consistent daily canvassing routine and built a pipeline of active prospects

Requirements:

What we're Looking For

  • Must be 18 years or older with a valid driver's license and reliable transportation
  • Comfortable with door-to-door sales and self-directed lead generation — this is the core of the role
  • Ability to climb ladders, walk roofs, and lift up to 50 lbs; must not be afraid of heights
  • Must be able to transport a ladder in your vehicle
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills — you're representing the Shamrock brand with every homeowner interaction
  • Highly motivated, coachable, and disciplined — you set your own schedule and are accountable for your own results
  • Ability to manage multiple active projects simultaneously
  • Cell phone required
  • 1-2 years prior roofing or construction sales experience


Additional Information

Shamrock Roofing & Construction provides equal employment opportunities to all applicants without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, sexual orientation, or genetic information. All offers are contingent upon successful completion of a background check and Motor Vehicle Record (MVR) review. Shamrock participates in the E-Verify Program.


If you're driven, coachable, and ready to build something real — we want to hear from you. Apply today and take the first step toward a career with one of the fastest-growing roofing companies in the country.
