Real Estate Paralegal

Weyerhaeuser is seeking a highly motivated Real Estate Paralegal to support one of the largest private land owners in the United States in managing real estate transactions and strategic land assets across the country.

You will serve as a valuable member of Weyerhaeuser’s Law and Procurement Department, supporting the Timberlands and Strategic Land Solutions organizations, and you will report to the Senior Legal Counsel/Transaction Team Manager. We are a group of attorneys, paralegals, and land title technicians that value professionalism, continuous improvement, and mutual support. We take pride in helping our businesses achieve their objectives while managing risk and maintaining high standards of service.

Reporting to the Senior Legal Counsel/Transaction Team Manager, you will play a key role in the acquisition, disposition, and management, of real property assets, partnering with attorneys, business leaders, and external service providers to execute transactions from initiation through closing. You will have the opportunity to support large, landscape-scale acquisitions and dispositions, but you will primarily manage a steady stream of small to mid-size transactions with business partners across the country.

The successful candidate will be a collaborative team player, proactive problem solver, and strong project manager who combines attention to detail with sound judgment, business acumen, and the ability to identify practical solutions to complex issues.

We welcome applications from experienced paralegals and other legal professionals, including attorneys seeking a transaction-focused role with significant responsibility and direct business engagement. This is a non-attorney position; the role does not involve the practice of law or the provision of legal advice.
