About The Position

Shamrock Roofing & Construction is hiring a Roofing Sales Specialist for a W-2 draw-against-commission role. The position offers a guaranteed draw of $15,080 per year while the employee builds a sales pipeline. Commission is 35% on company-provided leads and 50% on self-generated leads; as commissions grow, they offset and ultimately replace the draw. The role has uncapped earning potential, and the posting states that top performers earn well above six figures.

Shamrock provides training, operational and production support, and potential advancement opportunities. Roofing or construction sales experience is preferred but not required.
