Resource Environmental Solutions LLC
Resource Environmental Solutions LLC Salary
Richmond, VA Full Time
POSTED ON 11/11/2025
AVAILABLE BEFORE 12/10/2025
At RES, we're looking for purpose-driven individuals who are passionate about restoration and sustainability, and who want their work to make a lasting environmental impact. Our team members go above and beyond, bringing initiative, integrity, and a strong work ethic to every project. Collaboration is key—we thrive on teamwork, open communication, and diverse perspectives. In a field that constantly changes, we value those who are resilient, adaptable, and resourceful in the face of challenges. If you're intellectually curious, eager to learn, and ready to help restore ecosystems and protect natural resources, you'll find your place here.

RES is looking for a Land Representative I to join our team.

As a Land Representative I at RES, you will support land acquisition and property research efforts for a wide range of ecological restoration, water quality, and conservation projects. Working closely with senior land representatives and internal teams, you'll help identify, evaluate, and secure land assets while learning the business, legal, and environmental factors that shape long-term land strategy at RES.

This role is ideal for someone early in their land or real estate career who enjoys research, negotiation, and working directly with landowners and external stakeholders.

Why You'll Love This Job:

  • You'll work at the intersection of real estate and environmental restoration. Every parcel you help evaluate supports projects that restore wetlands, improve water quality, or protect endangered species habitats.
  • You'll build valuable skills in land acquisition. From online research to contract preparation and field visits, you'll learn every stage of the land transaction process.
  • You'll grow your long-term career. This is a foundational role with pathways toward senior land or sales positions.

A Day in the Life

You'll begin your day researching property records using online databases, analyzing parcel maps in Google Earth, or reviewing site features in preparation for a field visit. You may support senior team members in assessing land for acquisition by collecting property details such as zoning, access, and site constraints.

Throughout the week, you'll help prepare and organize contracts, track landowner communications, evaluate basic title documents, and enter property details into internal systems. You'll also build your knowledge of the RES land model—understanding how land supports mitigation and restoration strategies, and how we plan for long-term resale and stewardship..

We would love to talk to you if you have many of the following:

  • Bachelor's degree in a relevant discipline (e.g., environmental studies, real estate, business, or related field)
  • 1 year of experience in land acquisition, real estate, or sales (preferred)
  • Intermediate proficiency with Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Adobe
  • Strong internet research skills and ability to learn online property records systems
  • Willingness to learn Google Earth, GIS tools, and RES internal platforms
  • Basic knowledge of land valuation principles and real estate terminology

What will make you stand out?

  • Experience preparing or reviewing land-related contracts
  • Understanding of property title issues, access constraints, or zoning
  • Familiarity with restoration-related land transactions or environmental due diligence

You Will Thrive in This Role If You:

  • Are curious about how land supports environmental restoration and sustainable development
  • Communicate clearly and ask thoughtful questions when you need guidance
  • Take ownership of your work and stay organized, especially when juggling multiple property leads
  • Enjoy researching land, working with maps, and talking to landowners
