How Robust Roofing pays its Project Managers
The role pays two ways. First, a true 50/50 split of job profit: no overhead slice, no office fee and no 10% deduction on your pay before the split. Second, Robust also pays a $75,000 per year base. There is no cap. Reps who compare plans across Ellijay and Gilmer County call it unusually generous, and they are right.
- Base: $75,000 per year, paid on a regular schedule.
- Full time: a real career role, based in the North Atlanta metro around Johns Creek.
- Split: a true 50/50 of job profit. Nothing is taken off the top.
- No cap: the split applies to every job you run, with no ceiling.
- No 10% deduction: no 10/50/50, no overhead percentage, no office or appointment fee, no marked up material.
The details of how the base and the split work together are covered in the interview, in writing.
For scale, the statewide median wage for all occupations in Georgia was $48,170 and the median for sales representatives of services was $75,280 (U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, Georgia, May 2025). Robust Roofing's base alone is in line with that sales median, and the true 50/50 split is a separate part of the role.
