How to Apply for Land Acquisition Team Member – Midland, TX

at Intersect Power

🏢 About Intersect Power

Intersect Power is at the forefront of scaling low-carbon solutions, focusing on clean electricity and fuels for both retail and wholesale markets. Their integrated approach across wind, solar, battery storage, and data centers offers a unique opportunity to work on diverse, large-scale renewable energy projects that directly impact the transition to a sustainable energy future.

About This Role

As a Land Acquisition Team Member, you will be the backbone of site control for major renewable energy and data center projects, managing everything from initial due diligence to closing agreements. Your work directly enables project development by securing land rights, coordinating with third-party agents, and tracking progress via Power BI—making you a critical link between legal, finance, and development teams.

💡 A Day in the Life

A typical day might start by reviewing land agent reports and updating the site control tracker in Power BI, then jumping into a call with a third-party agent to discuss negotiation progress on a solar lease. After lunch, you'd analyze GIS maps for a new wind project site, prepare documents for a purchase agreement, and end the day by reconciling budget expenses against the project schedule.
