About the role
This is an opportunity to join one of the most successful and highly regarded US law firms in the market – a firm that genuinely invests in Business Development and gives its BD professionals a seat at the table.
Joining their market-leading Litigation practice, you will work directly with Partners to shape and deliver the group's strategic growth plans. This isn't a role where you will simply react to requests; you will be expected to challenge ideas, identify opportunities, and provide commercial insight that helps drive the practice forward.
A key focus of the role will be advising Partners on market trends, client development initiatives, cross-selling opportunities, and long-term business planning. The Partners are looking for someone who will bring fresh thinking, confidence, and a strategic mindset.
One of the standout aspects of this opportunity is the level of support available. You will have dedicated specialist teams covering pitches, events, CRM, communications and marketing, allowing you to focus on the high-value, advisory side of Business Development rather than being consumed by day-to-day execution. You will also have junior resource available to support the function.
The firm has built a collaborative, high-performing culture where BD is viewed as a genuine strategic partner to the business. Alongside an excellent remuneration package, they offer a clear progression pathway, first-class learning and development, and the opportunity to work with some of the best legal and BD professionals in the industry.
This role would suit an established Business Development Manager or an ambitious Senior Business Development Executive ready to take that first step into management with the backing of an exceptional team.
