  • Prior experience working in onshore wind or renewable energy projects is highly desirable.
  • Strong negotiation and interpersonal skills, with the ability to build positive relationships with landowners and stakeholders.
  • Knowledge of land leasing processes, property rights, and local zoning laws and regulations.
  • Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal, and the ability to present complex information clearly.
