[Hiring] Regional Director / Business Development Director @Spot

Role Description

A Regional Director is needed to join The Legal Director, an established and expanding legal services business giving companies access to experienced fractional General Counsel without the cost of employing a full time Legal Director.

This is a newly created commercial role with serious scope. Remote working, ideally around the Northern Home Counties or Thames Valley, you'll be given the freedom to:

• Build a regional market
• Develop your own network
• Turn relationships into long term clients

As the first Regional Director appointment, you'll also help shape how the role develops nationally, with plans to introduce further Regional Directors across the UK as the model grows.

At the heart of the role is new business. You'll get out into your market, build relationships with:

• Business owners
• Senior decision makers

You will:

• Develop productive referral partnerships
• Attend relevant networking events
• Personally lead opportunities from first conversation through to proposal and close

You should be the type of person who is comfortable:

• Leading sales conversations
• Closing leads
• Building repeatable commercial results

You'll also work closely with TLD's experienced lawyers, identifying opportunities within existing relationships and helping create a strong commercial presence across your region. This is a remote role, but definitely not a desk based one. Expect:

• Regular meetings
• Events
• Networking
• Time spent building relationships face to face

Legal experience is not essential. What matters is a proven ability to:

• Create opportunities
• Earn trust
• Win relationship driven B2B business within a professional environment

Qualifications

• A strong record of generating and closing new B2B business
• Experience selling professional, advisory or relationship led services
• Confidence networking with business owners and senior leadership teams
• Evidence of building referral relationships and partnerships that generate genuine opportunities
• Excellent communication, presentation and relationship building skills
• The autonomy and discipline to manage your own territory, pipeline and activity
• Strong commercial judgement, resilience and follow through
• A full UK driving licence and willingness to travel regularly

Benefits

• £50,000 basic salary with the opportunity to earn up to £100,000 Y1 OTE
• Freedom to build a territory almost from the ground up
• Backed by an established national business
• Experienced lawyers and central marketing, finance and operational support

For someone who enjoys opening doors, building networks and owning results, this is a rare opportunity to make a role genuinely your own.
