Senior Marketing and Business Development Executive

Join to apply for the Senior Marketing and Business Development Executive role at Pinsent Masons.

Location: Birmingham, Manchester, Leeds, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Belfast

Role Overview

Here at Pinsent Masons, we bring together the best people to get the job done. We’re naturally curious, constantly learning, listening, and growing. We’ll truly value your ideas. You’ll be joining an award-winning, hardworking and commercially minded team, where you’ll have the opportunity to work with leading experts and form meaningful relationships, while making a difference. You’ll get the opportunity to be involved in varied and challenging work. Working in an open and supportive environment, to deliver outstanding results.

Our people are our success, and we work as one team. We are recruiting two Senior Marketing and Business Development Executives to join our Business Development and Marketing group.

One role will support our Public and Professional Services (PPS) team, looking at clients across the professional services, public sector, business services, and high net worth markets. The other role will be part of our Commercial and Employment teams, who advise on all aspects of the contract life cycle for clients across all our global sectors, with expertise in employment and reward.

These roles carry a high degree of autonomy and involve operating with partner-level stakeholders. It is a trusted-advisor role and the partners look to this team for ideas, strategic input, a dynamic approach, informed views, and effective multi-channel BD support for collaboration with sector colleagues.

This role can be based out of our Birmingham, Manchester, Leeds, Glasgow, Edinburgh or Belfast office. Our standard working hours are 9:30am-5:30pm; flexible working requests will be considered.

Candidate Overview

We are looking for candidates who ideally hold the following skills and experience:

• Proven experience at a Senior Marketing and BD level, or exceptional quality at an exec level, ideally within the legal industry or similar partnership environments
• Able to lead on content creation for outputs including capability documents, client brochures, pitches, thought leadership campaigns and various social media channels
• Evidence of working as a trusted advisor to senior stakeholders such as Partners, providing advice and guidance and able to challenge where necessary
• Experience in managing sector-specific trade memberships to maximise opportunities
• Comfortable working across strategic to administrative levels
• Ability to take genuine ownership of the role with minimal supervision, managing a complex and varied workload, staying up to date with news and trends, and adopting new technology (e.g., Copilot for research and document creation)

What happens next? Once your application has been submitted and reviewed, our Recruitment team will share the outcome with you by email. We typically hold two interview stages per vacancy, with the opportunity to meet two members of the hiring team at each stage. The first stage is typically virtual and the second stage usually in person at the office where the role would be based. We strive to remain flexible depending on the requirements of the role or the candidate.

Our strength lies in our differences. We are a Disability Confident and top Stonewall employer, a Valuable 500 member, signatory of the Race at Work Charter, and a proud partner of Neurodiversity in Law. We encourage and value different ideas and styles of thinking. It’s with different perspectives that we’ll find solutions to our clients’ most complex challenges. We want everybody attending an interview to be comfortable and able to fully demonstrate their experience and talents.
