Since 1972, TPL has protected more than 4 million acres of public land, created more than 5,500 parks, trails, schoolyards, and iconic outdoor places, generated over $112 billion in public funding for parks and public lands, and connected nearly 10 million people to the outdoors.

  • Negotiates agreements with landowners, contractors, agencies, and community partners with assistance of TPL legal and finance staff.
  • Manages all phases of the conservation real estate due diligence (title research and review, identification of funding opportunities, management of appraisal and environmental assessment contracts,and preparation of documents for internal approvals).
  • Understands and supports WA Conservation team pursuing public funding through local, state and federal grant programs, including grant proposal preparation or support and submission.
  • Supports WA Conservation Director with current projects.
  • Explores potential future projects by using GIS tools, developing positive relationships with a diversity of community members, and conducting outreach to landowners, nonprofit organizations, public agency officials, and other partners.
  • Works closely with the Northwest philanthropy team to meet with donors and support fundraising efforts and collaborates with the entire Northwest staff on strategic planning sessions, budget preparation, and other team efforts.

Qualifications:
  • Strong commitment to TPL's shared values (Belonging, Creativity, Collaboration, Impact, and Hope) to effectively work across the organization.
  • Bachelor's degree preferred, or equivalent work experience.
  • 3-5 years of conservation real estate experience preferred. Familiarity with the Washington market, land transaction tools, and funding sources are a plus.
  • Consistent high level of performance and creativity.
  • Ability to work independently and effectively in a team environment.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
  • Ability to thrive as a team player, adaptable and flexible.
  • This position requires moderate to frequent travel, including to the Seattle office to collaborate with the Northwest team, across Central and Eastern Washington, and occasionally nationwide to the all-staff retreat and/or national conferences. Evening and weekend work on occasions.
Compensation:
Trust for Public Land is a hybrid work environment, and this role will ideally be located near a Trust for Public Land office. As a full-time employee, you will be eligible for the Trust for Public Land's comprehensive benefits program which includes medical, dental, and vision insurance, vacation and sick pay plus holidays, a year end office closure, and a 403(b)-retirement plan, currently with up to a 7% company match.
