Territory Sales Representative

 

Read Before Applying:

For over 13 years, Advocate Construction has been dedicated to integrity, craftsmanship, and the protection of our clients’ greatest investment: their homes. Today, we are the 21st largest residential roofing firm in the country. To maintain this standard, we select teammates who are willing to trade short-term comfort for long-term gains; to defend their homeowners and grow professionally. This is not for everyone. This is a field-based, high-rejection test of will. As you train, you will work with real-life homeowners from 10 AM - 8 PM, be told ‘No’ dozens of times, and this is the repetition you need to master your craft. Most people quit in their first week because they lack the discipline required to earn a six-figure income. If you need the comfort of a cubicle, do not apply. If you want to be empowered to earn what you are truly worth, keep reading.

Benefits and Perks:

  • Guaranteed weekly base pay + monthly, and annual bonuses

  • Career advancement – we grow leaders from within

  • Medical, dental, vision, life, short and long-term disability insurance (customizable plans)

  • 401(k) retirement plan with 4% match

  • Paid time off (PTO) and 9 paid holidays

  • Monthly communication stipend

  • Employee Assistance Program (EAP)

  • Company Truck Program

  • Performance-based incentive trips and referral rewards

  • Volunteer opportunities through our Advocate Cares program
