Trade Lead — Window, Door & Siding Installer

OtherFull-time
Virginia Beach, VA, USPosted 2h ago

About this role

Work as the senior window, door, and siding installer while leading a semi-autonomous crew with a dedicated P&L. Lead residential installations across Virginia Beach and Hampton Roads, set the flashing and weatherproofing standard, and earn cash gross-margin sharing with no employee equity or ownership interest.

Compensation & Benefits

Expected total cash compensation at plan: $102,800–$117,360/yr. $30,000 at-plan annual gross-margin incentive (10% of $300,000 in collected, adjusted crew gross margin for a four-person crew), with 75% paid quarterly and 25% held for the annual true-up. This estimate excludes the value of benefits and discretionary annual company profit sharing.

Illustrative larger-operation scenario: $172,800–$187,360/yr at $1,000,000 crew gross margin. This is performance-based, uncapped potential rather than guaranteed compensation.

  • $35–$42/hr base + 10% of YOUR crew's collected, adjusted gross margin
  • $102,800–$117,360 expected total cash at the four-person $300K crew-margin plan; $172,800–$187,360 at $1M crew margin
  • Quality/safety factor (0.7x–1.0x) so quality protects earnings rather than speed inflating them
  • 75% of earned margin incentive paid quarterly; 25% held for the annual collections, warranty, and callback true-up
  • Mentorship royalty — a declining 3-year override on a crew member's new crew when you develop them into their own Crew Lead
  • Annual profit sharing in profitable years
  • Company truck, tools, and PPE; Day 1 benefits; 401(k) after 90 days

Benefits

  • Dental insurance
  • Paid time off
  • Profit sharing
  • Company truck

What You Bring

  • Proven windows, doors, and siding installation experience
