Oil & Gas Due Diligence Landman (Utica/Marcellus) – Full-Time Contract | Remote

Oil & Gas Due Diligence Landman (Utica/Marcellus) – Full-Time Contract | Remote

Overview: We are seeking an experienced Oil & Gas Due Diligence Landman to support acquisition and divestiture projects in the Utica and Marcellus shale plays. This is a full-time contract position working remotely with a fast-paced deal team.

This is not a traditional title role—we are looking for someone who understands how land impacts a deal.

What You’ll Do

• Analyze oil & gas leases and agreements for acquisition due diligence
• Evaluate:
  • Lease terms and obligations
  • Depth severance and HBP status
  • Pooling and unitization
• Identify title gaps, risks, and key assumptions
• Work with limited/incomplete datasets and clearly communicate findings
• Support deal teams by validating land-related inputs for valuation and decision-making

What We’re Looking For

• Proven experience in oil & gas due diligence / A&D projects
• Strong understanding of:
  • Utica and/or Marcellus shale (preferred)
  • Lease analysis, depth rights, and unit structures
• Ability to think critically and make defensible assumptions with incomplete data
• Strong communication skills—able to translate land issues to non-land stakeholders
• Self-starter who thrives in a remote, fast-moving environment

Preferred (but not required)

• Prior experience supporting acquisition teams, operators, or private equity-backed projects
• Appalachian Basin experience (OH, WV, PA)

What to Expect

• Full-time contract role
• Remote work environment
• High-impact work tied directly to active deals

Closing: If you’re someone who can look at a package, connect the dots, and call out risk before it becomes a problem—we want to talk.
