  • To provide leadership to foremen—fostering safety, teamwork, and discipline—resulting in efficient and professional roof system installation.
  • To consistently provide high-quality service and results.

  • Coordinate, supervise and manage subcontractors.
  • Monitor quality of installations.

  • Engage with customers to answer questions and provide explanations.
  • Schedule daily or weekly contact with customers to review progress.
  • Discuss any outstanding issues with customers and other parties.
  • Meet with customers to verify satisfaction with work and billing; deliver warranties.

  • Ensure crews have information and instructions necessary to complete jobs. If information is missing or lacking, notify Operations Manager and Senior Project Manager as soon as it is identified.
  • Submit reports and paperwork on time and otherwise coordinate communication between office and job sites. This includes thorough, timely Daily Project Report’s and other reports needed by others for their responsibilities. If providing daily reporting is not possible for some reason, notify Operations Manager in advance with explanation as to why it is not possible.
  • Investigate incidents, near misses, accidents, and thefts, and provide relevant documents, photos and assessments to the office.
  • Deliver all documentation to the office in a timely manner. Reporting required daily should be done daily, and not accumulated and done every X days. This includes not only job reports such as DPR’s but also includes expense reports and information needed by the Safety Manager or safety team.
