📋 Description

• Design and implement a unified permitting process across all Utopia projects, from pre-application through final approval. • Build a master permitting template and adapt it to local regulations in Brazil, Costa Rica, Spain, the Dominican Republic, Dubai, and Cape Town. • Reduce permit approval timelines by identifying bottlenecks, sequencing submissions in parallel, and anticipating authority requirements early. • Map and maintain the regulatory landscape for zoning, building, environmental, and hospitality licensing in each market. • Coordinate local architects, lawyers, expeditors, and consultants to ensure complete, high-quality submissions. • Track every permit across the portfolio and provide leadership with timelines, risks, and mitigation plans. • Integrate permitting milestones into project schedules with development and construction teams. • Document lessons learned and continuously refine processes and templates. • Collaborate with development, architecture, construction, legal teams, local consultants, and authorities.

🎯 Requirements

• Proven experience in permitting, entitlements, or regulatory approvals for real estate, construction, or hospitality developments. • Hands-on experience securing permits in multiple jurisdictions, ideally across different countries. • A track record of building standardized processes or templates that measurably shortened approval timelines. • Solid understanding of zoning, building codes, environmental approvals, and land-use regulations. • Experience managing external consultants, local counsel, and interactions with public authorities. • Strong project management skills: you can run dozens of parallel applications without losing sight of the details. • Fluent English. • Spanish and/or Portuguese. • Hands-on permitting experience in Spain, Brazil, Latin America, the UAE, or South Africa. • Background in luxury residential or hospitality development. • Experience with permit-tracking systems or project management tools such as Jira or Confluence.

🏖️ Benefits

• Fully remote with business trips. • You'll collaborate from anywhere within GMT-3 to GMT+3. • A laptop and access to our project and documentation tools from day one. • You'll take projects through approval in Europe, Africa, the Middle East, and Latin America. • A team that spans 30+ countries.
