**About Us**

Santos provides reliable, affordable energy for progress and seeks to provide lower carbon energy over time.

We are committed to supplying critical fuels such as oil and gas, and abating emissions through carbon capture and storage, energy efficiency projects, use of renewables in our operations and high-quality offsets. Santos will also seek to develop low-carbon fuels as customer demand evolves.

For 70 years, Santos has been working in partnership with local communities, providing jobs and business opportunities, safely developing natural gas resources and from there powering industries and households.

The Santos portfolio is value accretive and resilient across a range of decarbonisation scenarios. Santos has a climate transition action plan that will continue to evolve for the global energy evolution.

Santos has a regional operating model with a strong local focus. The Company’s operating structure comprises three regional business units focused on enabling and executing corporate strategy. Two divisions - Santos Energy Solutions and Santos Upstream Gas and Liquids - are accountable for global portfolio management and strategy.

- High proficiency in Land Access, Contract Law, Petroleum Construction, Land Valuation, Agriculture Practice and Stakeholder Management.
- High proficiency in Negotiation capabilities including the ability to influence outcomes
- Mediation and Dispute Resolution with ability to help resolve conflicts.
- Strong Business planning skills including high attention to detail, prioritisation and managing critical path milestones
- Strong computing skills and the ability to effectively utilise support systems.

Ideally, you hold relevant tertiary qualification in Law, Business, or relevant area.

While industry experience is preferred, it is your transferable skills, your hunger for knowledge, and your unwavering commitment to hard work that truly define you. This role is not just about a job; it is about a partnership in growth, a chance to contribute to a cleaner energy future, and a platform to showcase the full extent of your abilities. If you are ready to channel your experience into a role that values your dedication, your skills, and your potential, we invite you to join us as a Land Access Adviser.
