The posting

Purple Land Management (PLM) is seeking experienced Project Land Managers to lead land services projects across the United States. This role is ideal for professionals who combine a strong foundation in land services with demonstrated success leading projects, teams, and client engagements.

Project Land Managers serve as the primary connection between clients, land professionals, and company leadership. They are responsible for staffing projects, managing schedules and budgets, ensuring quality deliverables, communicating with clients, and helping teams successfully execute complex land services projects.

This is not an in-house landman role. While land knowledge is essential, the position leans heavily toward project leadership, communication, accountability, client service, and execution. The ideal candidate understands land services work well enough to effectively direct projects while possessing the leadership and project management skills necessary to guide teams, solve problems, and drive results.

PLM supports clients across oil and gas, carbon capture, direct lithium extraction, renewable energy, telecommunications, infrastructure, and other land-intensive industries.

Responsibilities

  • Manage multiple land services projects simultaneously from kickoff through final delivery.
  • Develop project plans, staffing strategies, schedules, budgets, and execution workflows.
  • Monitor project progress, timelines, budgets, and key performance indicators.
  • Identify risks, resolve obstacles, and escalate issues when appropriate.
  • Adjust staffing, priorities, and workflows to ensure project success.
  • Ensure project deadlines, quality standards, budgets, and client expectations are consistently met.
  • Serve as the primary point of contact for assigned projects.
  • Lead client meetings, status updates, and project communications.
  • Build trusted client relationships through responsiveness, accountability, and execution.
  • Partner with Directors and leadership to identify opportunities for project expansion and additional services.
  • Ensure client expectations are clearly communicated and consistently achieved.
  • Coordinate teams consisting of entry-level, intermediate, senior, and subject matter expert land professionals.
  • Facilitate communication between field personnel, reviewers, project teams, clients, and leadership.
  • Provide direction, clarification, prioritization, coaching, and accountability.
  • Conduct calls, meetings, coaching sessions, and one-on-one conversations as needed to keep projects moving.
  • Support onboarding, staffing recommendations, and professional development initiatives.
  • Foster a culture of accountability, responsiveness, teamwork, and continuous improvement.
  • Provide guidance and support to title, leasing, acquisition, curative, due diligence, GIS, and right-of-way personnel.
  • Review project scope and ensure teams remain aligned with client requirements.
  • Assist with complex operational and technical challenges.
  • Review work product for completeness, consistency, and adherence to project requirements.
  • Promote quality standards, operational consistency, and best practices across projects.

Required Qualifications

  • 5+ years of hands-on land services experience, including title research, leasing, acquisitions, due diligence, curative, right-of-way, GIS, or related land functions.
  • Direct experience performing land work, not solely managing or supervising those functions.
  • Demonstrated experience leading projects, teams, client engagements, or operational initiatives.
  • Proven ability to coordinate resources, manage competing priorities, and deliver projects on schedule.
  • Strong understanding of project planning, staffing, resource allocation, budgeting, and client management.
  • Excellent communication, leadership, organizational, and problem-solving skills.
  • Ability to lead teams consisting of professionals with varying levels of experience and technical expertise.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience managing land services projects for energy, infrastructure, telecommunications, renewable energy, carbon capture, or related industries.
  • Experience supervising landmen, analysts, contractors, reviewers, or project teams.
  • Familiarity with title, leasing, acquisitions, due diligence, curative, GIS, and right-of-way workflows.
  • AAPL membership preferred.
  • RPL, CPL, PMP, or similar professional certifications are a plus.
  • Bachelor's degree preferred but not required.

Desired Characteristics

  • Strong leader and communicator.
  • Highly organized with exceptional project management skills.
  • Comfortable making decisions and holding team members accountable.
  • Able to build credibility with clients, leadership, and project personnel.
  • Adaptable and solutions-oriented.
  • Comfortable operating in fast-paced environments with changing priorities.
  • Focused on execution, follow-through, and results.
  • Proactive in identifying issues, removing obstacles, and driving projects forward.
