Job description
You've Been Running Projects. This Is Running the Business Around Them.
The Project Managers and Superintendents report to you. So does the backlog, the margin, and whether the division grows.
You'd own delivery across multiple concurrent commercial projects — on time, on budget, safely — and the financial performance that comes out the other end.
Estimating, preconstruction, accounting and operations are already built. Your job is running the division, not covering for missing functions.
The work includes federal and large commercial projects, which means real technical depth and customers who stay.
You'd report to the Regional Manager at the largest commercial roofing contractor across Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama.
What You Get
Performance bonus on top of base
Company truck and fuel card
Health insurance and retirement program
PTO — personal, sick, and observed federal holidays
Laptop, phone, and full equipment
Full P&L ownership of your division
A team of Project Managers and Superintendents to lead and develop
Established estimating, preconstruction, and accounting support behind you
Opportunity Overview
This is one of the largest and best-run commercial roofing contractors operating across Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama, delivering roofing and service work to healthcare, industrial, manufacturing, education, government, and commercial facilities.
The business has traded since the early 2000s and runs as a structured regional operation with defined departments — estimating, preconstruction, accounting, operations services, and a dedicated safety function — supporting divisional teams in the field.
A significant portion of the work involves federal projects, requiring facility clearance and an understanding of how a roofing scope integrates into the critical path of a large construction program. Divisions operate with their own Project Managers and Superintendents, managing multiple concurrent projects within a defined geographic market, reporting into regional leadership.
Your Role
Own delivery across the division's projects — schedule, budget, quality, and safety
Lead, develop, and hold accountable a team of Project Managers and Superintendents
Act as the division's financial steward — protect margin and keep the backlog full
Build relationships with architects, owners, vendors, and manufacturer representatives across the territory
Analyze job performance and find where cost comes out without margin going with it
Work with the Safety Department to hold company and client safety standards on every site
Develop and strengthen the subcontractor base the division relies on
Partner with estimating, preconstruction, accounting, and operations to keep work flowing cleanly
Key Requirements
Strong technical knowledge of commercial roofing systems and assemblies
Team leadership at branch or divisional level — managing PMs, Superintendents, or both
Experience with federal contracts and how federal projects differ from private work
Advanced understanding of construction sequencing on large commercial projects
Valid driver's license and a good driving record
