Overview
LOD is on a major growth curve as we expand our client base, our geographies and the scope of our services. We’re looking to maintain this positive momentum by adding to our Account Management team, which sits within the wider Client Solutions team, which is responsible for growing LOD’s client relationships. Two thirds of our UK revenues come from clients who already know and work with us, making the Account Management team essential to achieving further growth.
We are looking for a highly credible account manager to develop and grow our relationships with existing strategic clients. You will work closely with the Head of Account Management to design account plans for a segment of client accounts and you will have primary responsibility for delivering against these.

You will have a strategic mind and be able to identify and execute opportunities for future growth. You will also have a passion for delivering a superior client experience and ensuring the client’s voice is at the heart of future service development. This is an ideal opportunity for anyone who is looking for a genuinely client facing role in the legal sector and the flexibility to use their full client development and sales skillset to make a personal impact in an ambitious (but fun!) company.
This is a hybrid role based in our London office.
