About the Role Stonegrove Roofing Partners is seeking an Acquisition Associate to focus on deal origination across our growing roofing platform. This role sits within our Partner Services team and is responsible for building and developing a pipeline of acquisition opportunities by engaging directly with owner-operators across target markets.

This is a front-end origination role. You will be responsible for identifying, contacting, and developing relationships with business owners, many of whom are not actively for sale, and guiding early-stage conversations around a potential transaction.
