A leading London law firm is looking to appoint a Communications Manager in a newly created role within its Business Development & Marketing team.
This is an exciting opportunity for an ambitious communications professional who wants to play a genuine role in supporting business growth. The firm sees communications as a revenue generation tool, not simply a brand awareness function, and is looking for someone who can bring fresh ideas, challenge the status quo and help position the firm more effectively in the market.
The successful candidate will be responsible for shaping and delivering the firm's external communications and content strategy, working closely with lawyers, business development professionals and senior stakeholders across the business.
The Role
This is a highly visible position where you will take ownership of the firm's external content programme, helping lawyers translate complex legal and commercial issues into engaging, market leading content that drives client engagement and supports business development objectives.
