I'm working with a highly regarded international law firm that is looking to appoint a Business Development Manager to support the continued growth of its Banking & Finance practice.

This is a fantastic opportunity to join a collaborative, high-performing BD team in a genuinely strategic role.

• Leading on pitches, proposals and bank panel submissions.
• Driving client targeting, CRM strategy and market insight.
• Owning flagship events, sponsorships and conferences.

What they're looking for:

• Experience in a Business Development role within legal or professional services.
• Strong stakeholder management skills with the confidence to influence senior partners.
• A commercial mindset and the ability to spot growth opportunities.
• Experience leading pitches, events and strategic BD initiatives.
• Excellent project management skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities.
