A leading professional services firm (Legal) is looking for a Senior BD Executive to join its close-knit Marketing & BD team.

You’ll be:
Leading BD plans and budgets for a group of departments
Running BD meetings, spotting opportunities and hot topics
Managing events, conferences, and thought leadership campaigns
Supporting directory/award submissions and credentials
Tracking new business opportunities and targets
Conducting client, competitor, and market research
Facilitating cross-selling across the group
