At Bumble Roofing of Greater Western Chicago, IL we believe roofing should be simple, transparent, and stress-free. Our promise: Roofing, the Easy Way.

This is a launch-phase leadership role for a confident roofing or construction professional who can balance operations, sales leadership, and team development while establishing strong processes for long-term growth.
 
Role Overview
The General Manager will support sales as needed alongside the sales consultant. This role is not meant to carry a long-term sales quota. Over time, the focus shifts to sales leadership, operations, and business management.
This is a hands-on role during the startup phase, ideal for candidates who thrive in building processes and teams from the ground up.

  •   Strong understanding of job costing, margins, and production flow
  •   Demonstrated leadership and accountability for results
  •   Comfortable working in the field, including climbing roofs
  •   Strong organizational, communication, and customer service skills
  •   Tech-savvy with CRM, estimating, and project management tools

  •   Manage subcontractors, enforce safety, and ensure quality
  •   Conduct job site checks and final walkthroughs
  •   Track job costs, margins, and timelines
Team & Customer Management
  •   Lead day-to-day operations
  •   Build relationships with crews, vendors, and the sales representative
  •   Train and coach team members on standards and processes
  •   Serve as primary contact post-sale, resolve issues, and drive customer reviews
