National Sales Trainer — Commercial Roofing
Full-Time or Consultative
Location: Remote (US)
$130,000 – $170,000 base + performance bonus (full-time)
Competitive day rate (consultative)
Build the sales engine behind one of America's fastest-growing commercial roofing platforms
Our client is a private equity-backed commercial roofing platform expanding rapidly across the United States. Their biggest constraint isn't demand — it's sales talent.
The pool of experienced commercial roofing salespeople is too small for the growth they're driving, so they're doing what the best platforms do: hiring proven sellers from adjacent trades and high-potential junior "sales athletes," and turning them into commercial roofing producers.
That only works with world-class training. That's where you come in.
The Role
You will own the sales training and development function across the platform's branch network. Your mission: take salespeople who already know how to sell — but don't yet know roofing — and make them productive, profitable commercial roofing sellers within their first 90 days.
You will:

The pool of experienced commercial roofing salespeople is too small for the growth they're driving, so they're doing what the best platforms do: hiring proven sellers from adjacent trades and high-potential junior "sales athletes," and turning them into commercial roofing producers.
That only works with world-class training. That's where you come in.
The Role
You will own the sales training and development function across the platform's branch network. Your mission: take salespeople who already know how to sell — but don't yet know roofing — and make them productive, profitable commercial roofing sellers within their first 90 days.
You will:
- Design and deliver the onboarding curriculum — "Roofing 101" (systems, scopes, service vs. re-roof, project lifecycle) plus commercial sales excellence (who the buyers are, how to get meetings with facilities managers, property managers, building owners and GCs, how to run discovery, how to close)
- Train two distinct talent streams — experienced sellers from adjacent trades (same route to market, different product) and junior new starts building their first sales career
- Run the ongoing coaching cadence — biweekly team training sessions, individual coaching calls, and deal-level support for reps in the field
- Own accountability — track activity and pipeline metrics, review results with reps and branch leaders, and keep new hires on the path to profitability
- Travel to branches for on-site kick-offs, ride-alongs, and in-person training blocks
- Partner with branch managers and leadership to embed a consistent sales methodology across every acquired company on the platform
Who We're Looking For
- A proven sales trainer or enablement leader — you've built and run training programs that measurably grew sales teams, not just delivered content
- Commercial roofing knowledge — you know the product, the buyers, the sales cycle, and what separates a good commercial roofing seller from an average one. Backgrounds in commercial roofing sales, sales leadership, or building envelope/construction sales training all work
- A coach at heart — you're genuinely passionate about developing people, and you get energy from watching a new starter close their first deal
- Comfortable with accountability — you hold people to standards, run tight cadences, and use data, not vibes
- A self-starter who can operate nationally — multiple branches, multiple time zones, regular travel
Why This Role
- Blank canvas, real backing. You'll build the training function from the ground up with PE-level investment behind it
- Genuine impact. Every rep you develop directly drives the platform's growth story
- Flexibility. Full-time hire or consultative engagement — we care about getting the right person, not the label
- Scale. As the platform acquires more companies, your function grows with it
How to Apply
Apply with your resume and a short note on the best sales team you've ever built or trained — what you did and what the results were.
