Business Development Manager - Litigation - Elite US Law Firm
This is an opportunity to join one of the most successful and highly regarded US law firms in the market – a firm that genuinely invests in Business Development and gives its BD professionals a seat at the table.
Joining their market-leading Litigation practice, you will work directly with Partners to shape and deliver the group's strategic growth plans. This isn't a role where you will simply react to requests; you will be expected to challenge ideas, identify opportunities, and provide commercial insight that helps drive the practice forward.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
A key focus of the role will be advising Partners on market trends, client development initiatives, cross-selling opportunities, and long-term business planning. The Partners are looking for someone who will bring fresh thinking, confidence, and a strategic mindset.
One of the standout aspects of this opportunity is the level of support available. You will have dedicated specialist teams covering pitches, events, CRM, communications and marketing, allowing you to focus on the high-value, advisory side of Business Development rather than being consumed by day-to-day execution. You will also have junior resource available to support the function.
