  • Utilise training sessions, tailored content and events to support the BD Manager and Campaigns team with the roll out of the firm's thought leadership material across sector teams
  • Create and internally publish the sector's key reports and provide sector content for reports required by other parts of the business
  • Work closely with relevant fee-earners as well as the Brand and Digital teams to produce sector specific content for use in external communications such as brochures, email campaigns and video content
  • Support the sector CRM programme for key/development clients, including provision of reports as required

Skills require:
