I'm tremendously excited to be exclusively representing one of the leading law firms in the US on their search to add a Practice Lead to their growing Litigation practice!
In this position, you will work closely with the Head of Business Development to support and drive strategic growth initiatives, client development and market positioning for this growing area for the firm. The preferred candidate will serve as the go-to liaison and will develop and execute client strategy, while managing marketing initiatives for the Litigation practice area. We believe this provides an excellent opportunity for someone with some management experience to further their growth as a leader, while taking a larger role in the strategic planning and approach for key accounts and clients.
I'd love to speak with professionals that have previous management experience in a Business Development role within a Litigation practice in a Law Firm. Beyond that, this person must be enthusiastic about the opportunity and must lead by example for junior staff members.
Core Responsibilities:
Work with the Head of Business Development to implement client development projects and initiatives to support the growth of existing and new business development goals.
Leverage the firm's experience and industry knowledge, in accordance with department-wide best practices, to develop pitches and presentations that are responsive to companies' specific needs.
Manage the Litigation Department's archiving of business development activities and experience.
Oversee and execute the preparation of pitches, presentations, RFP responses, background materials and general practice group marketing materials;
Oversee and execute all legal directory (g., Chambers, Legal 500, IFLR), award and league table submissions
I feel the current salary banding is competitive within the market, however, if you are looking for something above this range, we are open to discuss further.
