Overview
Client Relations Manager – Global Law Firm (London, Hybrid) Jobs in United Kingdom at MENA Recruit
A leading international law firm is seeking an experienced Client Relations Manager to join its London Marketing team.
Key accounts. No pitches. No sales.
This is a relationship management role, not a business development one. You will own a portfolio of the firm's most important client accounts, working directly with partners to build and deliver annual client plans, spot where the relationship can grow, and make sure the right lawyers are in the room at the right time.
What it is not: pitching, proposals, or anything client-facing. The proposals team does that. You will work alongside them, including pricing, accounting, and DEI, but your focus will be the strategy behind the account.
The clients are mostly US-headquartered, with a meaningful EMEA book, so you will need a genuine feel for what is happening in the legal market on both sides of the Atlantic.
The team is global (New York, Boston, California, London); the role reports to New York, and a coordinator supports the team so you can focus on the accounts.
Who they want:
1. Already operating at manager level in key account or client relationship management. This is a lateral move, not a step up.
2. Law firm background preferred. Strong consulting firm experience will be considered.
3. Self-directed, comfortable with senior stakeholders, and fluent in Salesforce, Excel, and PowerPoint.
Highly competitive salary on offer.
