Full job description
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.
Company Description Purple Land Management, LLC (“Purple”) is one of the nation’s largest tech-enabled provider of land services that negotiates the buying, selling, and leasing of mineral rights, determines and cures title, prepares mineral ownership reports, and performs other related services required for oil and gas operators to drill and produce wells. Overdrive, Purple’s proprietary software-as-a-service (“SaaS”), allows customers to track lease, well, and contract data in a web-based geographic information system (“GIS”) mapping platform powered by ESRI, a leader in GIS mapping software. Based in Fort Worth, Texas, and founded in 2010, Purple has the financial support of Satori Capital, a Texas-based multi-strategy investment firm founded upon the principles of conscious capitalism.
