The ideal candidate will have previous business development experience gained within a professional services environment, with experience in a legal firm being particularly advantageous. Candidates whose background is solely within marketing, communications or PR are unlikely to be suitable. They will possess excellent written and verbal communication skills, together with strong organisational, project management and stakeholder management abilities. A degree-level education is preferred, alongside proficiency in Microsoft Office and CRM systems. The successful candidate will be a confident self-starter, capable of working independently as the sole Business Development professional within the Guernsey office while collaborating effectively with a wider international team. Applicants must hold the right to work in Guernsey.
