This is a brand-new role, working closely with a senior international BD lead to help coordinate and deliver cross-border business development activity. The focus is commercial, not marketing-led.

Work with senior stakeholders to develop existing clients and identify new opportunities

Support international client teams and key account activity

Significant relevant BD/marketing experience in professional services

Strong commercial understanding of client development

Confident working directly with senior stakeholders

Highly autonomous, self-starting and comfortable with ambiguity

Legal / IP or multi-disciplinary professional services experience

A rare opportunity to step into a high-visibility international role and help shape how BD is done globally.
