About the Role
Purple Land Management (PLM) is seeking a Project Land Manager who can lead complex title and acquisition projects from kickoff through delivery — balancing client goals, team performance, and operational execution.
This role is designed for someone who thrives in fast-moving environments, sees the whole board, and knows how to connect people, process, and data. You’ll manage teams across varied experience levels, work-types, and geographies, coordinate subject-matter experts and title reviewers, and partner with senior leadership to keep delivery on time, on budget, and on brand.
Your job isn’t to be the best title examiner in the room — it’s to build the environment where every land professional can do their best work.

Key Responsibilities

  • Plan and deliver land projects from kickoff through completion, ensuring clear timelines, budgets, and deliverables.
  • Translate complexity — convert title progress, lease status, and GIS data into client-ready reporting and executive updates.
  • Direct and support landmen, associate landmen, and subject matter experts, keeping work aligned through Purple’s systems (Landboss, Reach360, Slack, G-Suite, and Overdrive).
  • Identify blockers early and coordinate the right people to maintain project momentum.
  • Track quality and efficiency through data dashboards, QC feedback, and performance logs.
  • Partner with senior leadership on staffing, scope changes, and client communications.
  • Support business growth by maintaining client satisfaction and identifying opportunities for additional scopes or phases.

Qualifications

  • 5+ years of experience in land, title, or acquisitions with demonstrated project coordination responsibilities
  • Proven ability to manage teams, priorities, and deadlines in a fast-paced environment
  • Excellent organization, communication, and analytical skills
  • Fluency in Microsoft Excel, Google Sheets, and document management tools
  • Ability to work effectively with diverse contributors and experience levels

Preferred Qualifications (Not Required)

  • Bachelor’s degree in Energy Management, Land Management, or related field
  • AAPL membership (RPL or CPL a plus)
  • Prior experience with operators, brokers, or consultancies managing multiple active projects
  • Familiarity with GIS systems or deed plotting tools

What Success Looks Like

  • Projects delivered on time and within scope
  • Teams operating smoothly within Purple’s systems — not outside them
  • Clients consistently updated and confident in project progress
  • Landmen describe your leadership as organized, fair, and steady under pressure

Purple Land Management, Overdrive Powered by ESRI®, is a full-service land management firm skilled at handling everything from title and leasing, due diligence and opinion certification to right-of-way acquisition, surveying and surface operations.

We believe that standards can always be raised. That’s why we work so hard to give our clients – energy producers, mid-stream operators, mobile service providers, engineering firms and municipal and state agencies – more than they expect. That means we demand a lot from ourselves. It means we are always looking for new approaches, new perspectives, and new ideas to help us be better at what we do. And it means that every day, for every project, we push ourselves to exceed goals, elevate service and deliver results – not just for our clients, but also for our communities and our country.

The Purple Way is about going above and beyond. Pushing the limits of what’s possible. Give more than you take. For our clients, it means we’re committed to being incredibly accurate, extremely efficient and doggedly results-oriented. For our communities, it means helping create jobs and stimulate the economy. For our country, it means being passionate about the domestic energy cause and working tirelessly to help reduce our dependence on foreign energy resources.

Our Mission:
Purple Land Management's mission is threefold: to hire the naturally ambitious and provide ongoing education outreach, to execute projects with the highest quality of excellence and detail, and to establish working relationships that give more than they take.
