They are quite open to how this could look however the ideal would be, an individual or team, you wouldn’t need to be able to bring work with you but you would need to be happy to get actively involved in business development, both within the internal market as they have existing clients that you would be supported in developing relationships with, but also the external market. You would need to have an interest in the tech, media and entertainment sectors. There will also be genuine scope to leverage work from the firms’ other offices right away in order to create a soft landing.
This role could suit someone within one of the larger teams who is looking for a route to progress, and one where they can help shape the team locally whilst having the backup and support of a firm who pride themselves in being a great place to be and genuinely supporting peoples career development.
