Business Development Manager (Legal)
London, UK
Posted 5 weeks ago
Job Description
I'm recruiting a Business Development Manager for a leading global offshore law firm, on a fixed-term contract of just under a year. It's a London based role covering the firm's EMEA offices across Europe, the Channel Islands and the Middle East, with one BD Coordinator reporting to you and a line into the global marketing and BD lead.
It's a fixed-term role, so the ask is realistic: you won't be reshaping strategy or BD plans from scratch. That said, strong experience in those areas, and a track record of delivering against them, is what will set you apart.

- Managing RFP and panel submissions, from content and document prep through to follow-up
- Running the directory submissions process for your offices and practice areas
- Handling award submissions for your practice areas, alongside marketing
- Managing signature events, sponsorships and conferences from start to finish
- Developing practice and office overviews and keeping the master versions current for clients
- Providing input on comms: mailshots, website content, newsletters, blogs and presentations
- Identifying and promoting cross-selling opportunities across practices and jurisdictions
- Researching key clients and target markets to brief partners on the opportunities
- Assisting lawyers with client presentations, from content and rehearsal to production and follow-up
- Championing use of the firm's CRM and coaching the lawyers on it
Experience sought:
- At least 5 years' business development and marketing experience, with law firm experience strongly preferred
- Able to work independently and to deadlines with little supervision
- Strong attention to detail
- Strong writing skills
- Previous managerial experience beneficial
- A degree in marketing, communications or a related field desirable
