Description

W2 Roofing Sales Specialist - Draw Against Commission | $100K+ Earning Potential | Springfield, MO

Full-Time | W-2 | Guaranteed Draw + Uncapped Commission

Must currently reside within ~30 miles of Springfield, MO. This is an on-site, community-based role — local roots and knowledge of the Springfield area strongly preferred.

Compensation Note: This is a W-2 draw-against-commission position. A guaranteed draw of $31,200/year is provided while you build your pipeline.
