What experience must the Designated Business Manager for a Bumble Roofing franchise have?

According to Bumble Roofing's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, a franchisee must nominate a Designated Business Manager who has the required experience and direct responsibility for all business operations. If the franchisee wants to change the Designated Business Manager, they must demonstrate to Bumble Roofing that the replacement is trained and qualified to handle all aspects of the business.

This requirement ensures that each Bumble Roofing franchise is managed by someone competent in the roofing business. It protects the brand's reputation and service quality.

For a prospective franchisee, this means they need to either possess the necessary management and operational skills themselves or hire someone who does. If hiring, Bumble Roofing has the right to ensure that the proposed manager is adequately trained and qualified before they can take on the role. This could involve submitting the manager's resume, providing proof of training, or having them undergo an assessment by Bumble Roofing. The FDD does not specify the exact type or amount of experience needed, only that it is the 'required experience'.

It is important for potential franchisees to discuss the specific requirements for a Designated Business Manager with Bumble Roofing to fully understand what qualifications are necessary. This will help in planning and budgeting for staffing needs.
