About the Role

In this role, you'll lead business development initiatives across the firm, working closely with partners to strengthen client relationships, identify new opportunities, and support the firm's continued growth.

What's on Offer?

  • Join a well-established and ambitious law firm with exciting growth plans
  • Work directly with Partners and senior stakeholders across the business
  • Genuine opportunity to influence strategy and make your mark
  • Supportive, collaborative partnership culture
  • Competitive salary and benefits package
  • Long-term career progression within a growing professional services business

This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced Business Development Manager who understands how partnership businesses operate. Our client is particularly interested in candidates who have previously worked within a law firm, accountancy practice, or another partnership-based professional services organisation, where building relationships and influencing stakeholders is key.

You'll play a central role in developing and implementing business development strategies, supporting partners with client development initiatives, identifying new business opportunities, preparing pitches and proposals, attending networking events, and helping to raise the firm's profile within the market.

The successful candidate will be commercially minded, proactive, and confident building relationships with people at all levels. Previous experience within a partnership model is essential, as you'll understand the unique dynamics of working alongside Partners and supporting business growth in a professional services environment.

If you're looking for a role where your ideas will be valued and where you can genuinely influence the future growth of a successful law firm, we'd love to tell you more.

Apply now for a confidential discussion. Your CV will never be sent directly to our client without your permission, and we'll talk you through the opportunity in detail before any introductions are made.
