This role is responsible for driving revenue growth by building and managing a high‑quality sales pipeline while contributing to market and territory strategy.

Key Responsibilities
  • Build and manage a robust pipeline of prospective law firm clients

  • Track outreach activity, pipeline progress, and deal stages with accuracy
  • Collaborate with internal teams to align sales strategy and market positioning
  • Communicate account strategy, pipeline health, and forecasts to leadership
Qualifications
  • Bachelor’s degree or equivalent professional experience
  • 3+ years of sales experience selling to law firms or legal organizations
  • Proven ability to manage multiple opportunities and priorities simultaneously
  • Highly organized with strong follow‑through and attention to detail
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with executive presence
  • Comfortable engaging attorneys, partners, legal ops, and firm leadership
