What this role is
Supervises a team of land agents and technicians handling property acquisition, leasing, and title records for energy or mining sites. At the Manager (Team Lead) (M1) level, the role owns a single team, day-to-day delivery and people issues, and drives team output and health. Direct people management of one team.
What this level does
- Supervises the daily work of a unit of junior land agents conducting property-record research, title reviews and courthouse/GIS ownership searches, assigning parcels and checking work for accuracy
- Coaches agents through landowner outreach and negotiation of smaller, less complex easement and land-acquisition proposals, stepping in on escalated conversations
- Reviews and approves routine land-rights paperwork (proposals, consents, damage-claim records) prepared by the team before submission
- Tracks parcel-level acquisition progress against short-term project milestones and reports status to the project lead
- Maintains professional relationships with property owners in the assigned area and ensures inquiries and complaints are answered in a timely manner
- Knowledge applied
- Functional expert in property-record research, title review and easement negotiation on smaller parcels; applies established acquisition practices and checks team output.
- Complexity & problem solving
- Limited scope; resolves routine parcel and landowner issues using known practices, escalating contested titles or disputes.
- Collaboration & interaction
- Daily interaction with the agent team and project peers; direct landowner contact on escalated conversations.
- Typical experience
- Land/ROW functional expert with some leadership exposure; often reached after several years as an agent or via a real-estate/property-admin support path.
Skills at this level
- Title research and property management
- — Conducts title searches, abstracting and courthouse/GIS ownership research to determine property ownership, and prepares the title paperwork required for acquisitions and eminent-domain cases.
- Land-rights instrument preparation
- — Prepares and administers easements, leases, deeds, licenses and tenant consents that secure land rights for energy facilities, ensuring instruments are legally sound and recordable.
- Land and ROW legal knowledge
- — Applies real-estate law, property law, environmental regulations, permits and eminent-domain/condemnation procedure to govern how right-of-way is acquired and defended.
- Negotiation and persuasion
- — Reaches acquisition agreements that balance landowner interests with project needs, negotiating purchase prices, easement terms and settlements up to and including condemnation while promoting community acceptance.
- Dispute and damage-claim resolution
- — Assesses the legitimacy of encroachments, damage claims and landowner complaints, negotiates settlements at minimal cost to the company, and keeps detailed supporting records.
- Route and site-selection analysis
- — Leads planning of route alternatives, site selection and corridor management for transmission lines, pipelines and generation plants, weighing land availability against engineering and regulatory constraints.
- Cross-functional project coordination
- — Coordinates land acquisition with surveyors, engineers, legal, regulatory and project-management staff to identify parcels and keep the acquisition lifecycle aligned with project schedule.
- Landowner relationship and communication
- — Maintains professional relationships with property owners through outreach, timely responses to inquiries and ongoing communication about project progress and concerns.
- Acquisition portfolio and budget management
- — Plans and controls acquisition cost, timelines and resourcing across parcels, projects or a division, forecasting land-rights spend against the capital plan.
- Right-of-way land-management systems
- — Uses right-of-way and land-management software (e.g., Quorum) and GIS tools to track parcel status, ownership data and land-rights records across acquisition programs.
