Jobbeschreibung

Marketing & Business Development Manager - Global Law Firm

A newly created role. A global platform. The opportunity to make a genuine impact.

Strictly Recruitment USA are working with one of the world's leading international law firms on an exciting opportunity for an experienced Marketing & Business Development Manager to join its Los Angeles team.

This is far more than a traditional marketing role.

You'll work directly with influential partners and senior leadership, helping shape business development strategy, strengthen client relationships, identify new opportunities and drive the continued growth of a highly regarded practice.

With the backing of an established global M&BD function, you'll have the resources of a major international firm alongside the autonomy and visibility to make a real difference.

This newly created position will play an important role in supporting the firm's California Disputes practice, with particular exposure to areas including Technology, Data Privacy, Cybersecurity and Intellectual Property. You'll be involved in the full spectrum of marketing and business development, from high-level strategic planning through to hands-on delivery.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Working closely with senior partners to develop and execute business development strategies.
• Identifying new business opportunities, strengthening existing client relationships and supporting cross-selling initiatives.
• Leading strategic pitches, proposals and client presentations.
• Developing targeted campaigns that enhance the practice's market presence and reputation.
• Providing market intelligence, competitor analysis and commercial insight to support growth.
• Coaching and advising lawyers on client development and business generation.
• Collaborating with colleagues across an extensive international network.
• Mentoring and supporting other M&BD professionals while helping drive best practices across the wider team.

Who We're Looking For

We're interested in speaking with commercially minded, confident and proactive M&BD professionals who enjoy working closely with lawyers and making things happen.

You'll ideally bring:

• At least 7 years' experience in marketing or business development, including experience within a law firm.
• A strong understanding of how major law firms operate and how to build successful relationships with partners.
• Experience delivering strategic BD initiatives, pitches, campaigns and client development activity.
• Excellent communication, influencing and stakeholder management skills.
• The confidence to challenge ideas, offer solutions and take ownership of projects.
• A collaborative, energetic and hands-on approach.

Importantly, you do not need to come directly from a Disputes or Litigation background.

We're equally interested in hearing from individuals with experience supporting Technology, Life Sciences, Intellectual Property, Regulatory or other relevant practice areas.

You don't need to be managing a large team, either. What matters is your ability to lead initiatives, influence senior stakeholders and deliver results.

There are plenty of M&BD Manager positions in the legal market. What makes this one particularly interesting is the combination of:

• A newly created position with the opportunity to help shape its direction.
• Direct access to influential partners and genuine involvement in business development decisions.
• An exceptional international platform with the resources and reputation of a leading global law firm.
• A broad, varied remit combining strategy, client development, marketing and commercial growth.
• Excellent career development opportunities within a collaborative, ambitious and evolving global M&BD team.
• A highly competitive salary of upto $199,000, dependent on experience.

This could be an excellent next move for an established M&BD Manager looking for greater visibility and influence, or an exceptional Senior BD professional ready to take the next step.

If you're an ambitious law firm BD professional in Los Angeles who's ready for something a little different, we'd love to hear from you.
