Business Development & Marketing Manager – Boutique Litigation Firm (London)
An ambitious, high-performing litigation boutique is looking for a confident and hands-on BD & Marketing Manager to take ownership of its growing profile and client development activity.
Founded just five years ago, the firm has already built a reputation for high-value international disputes and complex litigation. With a strong referral base (notably from leading chambers), a visible presence on LinkedIn, and regular participation in key market events like London International Disputes Week, this is a business that punches above its weight—and is ready for someone to take the reins and drive forward its next phase of growth.

-
Lead on BD strategy, research, pitches and targeting

-
Plan and manage events – from breakfasts to dinners to flagship litigation conferences
-
Build processes that scale – from content calendars to feedback loops and SEO improvement

-
Confidence working with senior stakeholders and managing competing priorities
-
Knowledge or experience in contentious legal markets a bonus

Someone who’s ready to grow with the role – with plans for future support as the firm expands
