Job Description
Proliance's commercial division is hiring an experienced commercial roofing and siding estimator. This is a senior role, not an entry-level one, and not a position where we teach estimating from the ground up. We're looking for an experienced commercial estimator who has already built roofing and siding estimates from takeoff to finished proposal and can step in and produce accurate work right away. If commercial estimating is still new to you, this particular role is not the right fit, and we'd rather say that clearly so we respect everyone's time. What we will show you is how Proliance runs: our systems, our proposal standards, our handoffs. The craft itself, reading prints and specs, running takeoffs, and pricing the work, you already have. You should already be a PRO at it. What you'll be doing Building detailed proposals for commercial roofing, siding, gutters, and exterior systems Performing material and labor takeoffs across all commercial property types Reviewing drawings, specs, and blueprints to produce accurate, thorough estimates Price complex commercial scopes accurately the first time. You know what drives cost and what tends to get missed. Collaborating with sales and production for seamless handoffs Using Xactimate and AccuLynx and other estimating software — we'll train you, familiarity is a plus Occasional site visits as needed What we're looking for Proven commercial estimating experience. You've personally produced a strong volume of commercial roofing and/or siding estimates and can speak to them in detail. The ability to work independently from day one. You don't need to be taught how to read specs, run a takeoff, or price a commercial job. A solid command of materials and how the work goes together. Commercial roofing systems (TPO, EPDM, mod-bit, metal), siding and cladding, and how these jobs get built and sequenced. Hands-on experience with the software. Real working time in Xactimate and/or AccuLynx, not just familiarity. You use them now. Strong Microsoft Office and Excel skills. Speed and accuracy. You catch the small details and still hit your deadlines. Clear communication. Sales and production rely on your numbers, so your estimates and notes need to be easy to follow. What you'll get $1,200 a week, paid weekly. A ground-floor role in a growing commercial division that will lean on your expertise. A real voice in how we build, price, and grow the commercial side. A clear path into estimating leadership or operations as we scale.
