Job Description

Learn a Valuable Trade. Do you enjoy solving problems, working with numbers, and figuring out how things are built?

Are you the kind of person who notices details others miss? Are you the kind of person who likes to get things right the first time? If so, you may be exactly who we're looking for. At Exterior Pro Roofing , we aren't simply hiring an employee—we're looking for someone who wants to build a long-term career and grow into one of the best commercial roofing estimators in the industry. You do not need roofing estimating experience (but you should have basic math and computer skills). We're looking for someone with the right attitude, strong analytical ability, and a willingness to learn. We'll teach you the roofing. About Us Exterior Pro Roofing is an award-winning, family-owned commercial roofing contractor serving Indiana. We are proud to be recognized as a Duro-Last Elite Contractor , placing us among the top commercial roofing installers in the country and the #1 installer in Indiana for quality. We're a growing company where every employee has the opportunity to make a real impact. You'll work directly with company leadership, receive hands-on mentoring, and have opportunities to take on increasing responsibility as your skills develop. What You'll Do As an Estimator Trainee, you'll learn how to evaluate commercial roofing projects and prepare accurate, competitive bids that help our company win profitable work.
Your responsibilities will include:
Learning to read blueprints and architectural drawings Performing material and labor quantity takeoffs Assisting with commercial roofing estimates and bid preparation Preparing proposals and project documentation Following up on bid results and gathering customer feedback Coordinating project submittals Communicating with vendors and suppliers Visiting job sites when needed to better understand projects Supporting project managers and estimators Helping improve office systems and estimating processes Assisting with general office responsibilities as needed Safely drive forklifts for receiving and staging job site materials at the shop What We're Looking For We're much more interested in potential than experience.
The ideal candidate:
Loves solving problems Enjoys working with numbers and spreadsheets Has exceptional attention to detail Learns quickly and asks thoughtful questions Is organized and dependable Takes ownership of their work Wants continuous learning and professional growth Appreciates the flexibility and culture of a family-owned business Experience with Excel, construction, CAD, blueprint reading, engineering technology, manufacturing, construction management, or estimating is helpful—but not required. Why You'll Love Working Here Competitive pay based on experience and potential 401(k) with company match Flexible schedule Paid training Work directly with company leadership Family-oriented work environment This Position May Not Be Right for You If.... You dislike learning technical material. You struggle with basic math. Details don't matter much to you. You don't enjoy solving problems. You don't enjoy working independently or sitting at a desk for extended periods. You're looking for just another job instead of building a long-term career. Ready to Build Your Future? If you're analytical, motivated, and excited to learn a valuable profession, we'd love to meet you. When you apply, tell us why you're interested in this opportunity and what makes you the kind of person who enjoys solving complex problems. We care more about your potential, character, and willingness to learn than whether you've worked in roofing before.
