About the Role

The Land Professional role supports land, title, right-of-way, lease, easement, acquisition, and real estate activities for utility-scale power generation, energy storage, transmission, and other grid-connected energy infrastructure projects across the U.S. This role is intended for a professional with experience in energy infrastructure development, landowner engagement, rights-of-way, site control, lease and easement negotiation, ALTA survey coordination, title review, curative coordination, utility coordination, oil and gas-related land matters, project acquisitions, and land due diligence. The individual will support projects from early-stage site screening and land strategy through land acquisition, title review, permitting support, interconnection-related land needs, construction readiness, financing support, and transition into construction and operations. The position is based in Ferrovial’s U.S. office in Austin, Texas and reports to the U.S. Land and Title Manager. The Land Professional will work closely with various internal teams and manage land and title workstreams across multiple U.S. regions, coordinate internal and external land consultants, support project acquisitions and co-development opportunities, maintain land-related project trackers, and help advance projects while maintaining development discipline, landowner trust, commercial focus, and strong stakeholder relationships.

Responsibilities

  • Support land, title, right-of-way, lease, easement, acquisition, and real estate activities for utility-scale renewable energy, energy storage, transmission, hybrid, and other grid-connected energy infrastructure projects from early-stage screening through construction readiness.
  • Assist with development and execution of land acquisition strategies, including site control planning, parcel analysis, landowner outreach, lease and easement negotiations, access agreements, crossing agreements, option agreements, purchase agreements, and other land-related documents.
  • Support right-of-way activities for generation tie-lines, transmission interconnections, access roads, collection systems, drainage improvements, utility crossings, fiber routes, and other project infrastructure.
  • Coordinate with landowners, tenants, local officials, community stakeholders, surveyors, title companies, outside counsel, land agents, right-of-way consultants, utilities, RTOs/ISOs, transmission providers, and other project stakeholders.
  • Review and support negotiation of leases, easements, rights-of-way, amendments, assignments, subordinations, consents, crossing agreements, surface use agreements, and other real estate instruments needed for project development, financing, construction, and operations.
  • Support title review, title commitment analysis, exception review, mineral ownership review, curative tracking, survey coordination, legal description review, encumbrance analysis, and resolution of title, access, ownership, and boundary issues.
  • Work closely with legal, development, engineering, construction, environmental, permitting, interconnection, and transmission teams to align land rights with project layouts, site plans, gen-tie routes, access needs, setback requirements, environmental constraints, constructability requirements, and commercial objectives.
  • Support project acquisitions, co-development opportunities, and M&A diligence by reviewing land control status, title issues, lease terms, easement coverage, right-of-way requirements, curative items, landowner obligations, schedule risks, and key real estate assumptions.
  • Prepare and maintain land schedules, parcel matrices, ownership reports, title and curative trackers, landowner contact logs, document status reports, consultant scopes, risk registers, budget inputs, and internal business updates.
  • Coordinate ALTA surveys, boundary surveys, title surveys, title searches, environmental access, field investigations, appraisal support, landowner meetings, surveyor deliverables, document execution, notarization, recording, and closing-related activities.
  • Conduct land and real estate analysis across multiple U.S. regions, including regional landowner practices, agricultural uses, mineral rights, water rights, oil and gas activity, surface use constraints, permitting considerations, county recording requirements, tax issues, access constraints, and local stakeholder dynamics.
  • Support financial feasibility analysis by providing assumptions related to land costs, lease payments, easement compensation, acquisition costs, title and curative expenses, survey costs, consultant budgets, landowner obligations, and schedule impacts.
  • Prepare clear written updates and presentation materials for internal management, project reviews, investment approvals, acquisition diligence, partner discussions, land strategy meetings, and executive-level reporting.
  • Help manage relationships with landowners, local officials, community leaders, title companies, surveyors, outside counsel, consultants, developers, utilities, oil and gas operators, transmission providers, contractors, and other land-related stakeholders.
  • Support project transition from development to financing, procurement, construction, commissioning, operations, and asset management by ensuring land rights, title work, document records, and stakeholder obligations are complete, accurate, and organized.
  • Track land, title, right-of-way, real estate, policy, regulatory, market, and industry trends affecting renewable energy, energy storage, transmission, and other energy infrastructure projects across multiple U.S. regions.
  • Promote a culture of safety, integrity, accountability, collaboration, respect, landowner trust, commercial discipline, and strong documentation across all land and project activities.
