Business Development Specialist, Litigation / Legal Marketing Specialist

Business Development Specialist, Litigation / Legal Marketing Specialist

In litigation, new work often starts with a new filing. This role sits at the centre of that. You’ll monitor litigation activity, research targets and help the partners in a high-profile disputes practice get in front of opportunities first. That practice covers class action, white collar, antitrust and commercial litigation.

What’s In It For You

• One practice, real depth. You’ll be dedicated to litigation, so you can become the go-to BD person for the group instead of being spread across the whole firm.

• A clear mentor. You’ll report directly to the Senior Business Development Manager who owns the group’s strategy.

• Intelligence, not just admin. You’ll use litigation and risk intelligence platforms to spot client and cross-selling opportunities.

• Visible work. You’ll lead Benchmark Litigation, Chambers and Legal 500 submissions for the group.

• Location. Based in New York City or North Jersey.

What You’d Actually Do

• Monitor litigation activity and research prospects, industries and competitors

• Turn your findings into recommendations and attorney briefing materials

• Build tailored pitches, RFP responses and presentations

• Track pitch outcomes and report what’s winning

• Coordinate client events, webinars and content with the marketing team

You’ll Likely Have

• 3+ years of BD or marketing experience at a law firm or professional services firm. Litigation paralegals looking to move into BD are worth a look.

• Strong research and analytical skills, plus writing that’s sharp under deadline

• Comfort with CRM, reporting and AI tools

• The confidence to juggle multiple projects with limited supervision
