The role is a senior position within the leadership team, contributing to the smooth running of the department. A fundamental element of the role is the active coaching and development of the more junior members of the team.

  • To actively participate in business development. The Partner group will work with you to develop a coordinated business development plan. An Associate Director is expected to contribute to growing the department and the firm by participating in targeting and lead generation, supporting proposals to new clients, and agreeing projects with the firm's existing clients.
  • To provide insights to our clients drawing on the firm's depth of resources and help to introduce other service lines as you build those relationships.
  • To act as a senior team member and leader in the team. An Associate Director is a senior member of the management team and is expected to act as a role model in their approach and actions for more junior managers.
  • To actively coach and develop our team. This includes acting as a line manager, mentor and performing job appraisals.
