Division Manager - Roofing & Exterior Construction

D2B Groups • Warwick, PA

4d • $100,000 - $150,000

About The Position

The Division Manager leads an entire roofing and/or exterior construction division, overseeing its managers, workforce, production, resources, and operating results. This is an upper-management role focused on running the division rather than managing individual projects. The successful candidate will learn the operation directly from the Owner/CEO and assume day-to-day responsibilities as they take hold of the division, enabling the CEO to focus on strategy and growth.

The role covers multifamily and commercial exterior construction work, which may include shingle and flat roofing, siding, windows, doors, decking, balconies, chimneys, and related building-envelope scopes. Candidates may have a primary background in roofing, exterior renovation and building envelope, or both; deep experience in every trade is not required.

Although this is an upper-management position, it remains connected to the field. The Division Manager regularly visits active projects, assesses operational issues, supports managers, and participates in field training when needed. The role requires comfort traveling between jobsites, walking large projects, and accessing roofs of varying pitch when needed for training or evaluation. Frequent ladder climbing and daily roof access are not part of the job.

The company is developing its own operating system, CRM, and integrated field and office applications. The Division Manager is expected to use these systems and ensure the management team does as well. Training on proprietary tools is provided; candidates should already be comfortable with modern business and construction technology and able to learn new software independently.

The company is growing, founder-led, privately held, and not private-equity-backed. It reinvests in the business and its people and offers direct mentorship from the Owner/CEO, with a defined path to running the division independently. Base salary is $100,000–$130,000, depending on experience, with a performance bonus and benefits including medical, PTO, phone, and a 401(k).

• Knowledge of roofing, exterior renovation, building-envelope systems, or related trades.
• Working knowledge of construction budgets, labor costs, and project profitability.
• Sound independent judgment, ability to anticipate needs, and ability to balance competing priorities.
• Advanced computer skills, including Microsoft Office—especially Excel, Word, and PowerPoint—construction management software, project tracking systems, digital reporting tools, iOS and Android devices and apps, web-based platforms, cloud applications, CRMs, and dashboards.
• Ability to learn new software independently and adapt quickly as systems change.
• Valid driver's license.
• Flexibility to work the hours required by a high-volume construction operation.
• Comfort traveling between jobsites, walking large projects, and accessing roofs of varying pitch for training or evaluation when needed.
• Ability and willingness to climb ladders and access roofs when the situation calls for it; frequent ladder climbing and daily roof access are not required.
