London, Greater London, United Kingdom The Law Society Full time £40,000 - £80,000 per year

The Role

Are you a motivated professional with a flair for communication, a keen interest in the legal world and a passion for stakeholder or member engagement?

We're on the hunt for an External Affairs Manager to support our engagement with members and key players across the legal sector.

Join our External Affairs Team at the Law Society and be at the forefront of our engagement with the largest 150 member firms, top in-house teams, and pivotal city and business groups.

For more details on responsibilities and requirements, please see the full job description.

What we're looking for

We're looking for someone who is a master communicator with exceptional interpersonal skills, a proactive problem-solver who takes initiative and drives solutions, and someone who is highly organised, detail-oriented, and professional in every interaction.

In return, we offer the chance to steer pivotal conversations and shape the future of legal practices, opportunities to network with industry leaders and influence key decisions, and a role that combines strategy and creativity in a vibrant, fast-paced environment.

What's in it for you

This is an excellent opportunity to work in an organisation which has recently achieved gold accreditation from Investors in People in recognition of its work over the last few years focusing on being an employer of choice for people who want to make a difference.

You will join an organisation with a reputation for excellence, commitment to EDI, development and wellbeing, and a culture of clarity, trust, and respect.

We offer hybrid working, a generous flexible benefits package, a positive working environment and the opportunity to develop your career within a professional organisation.

Please note: if you are an internal applicant, Pay Policy will apply.

We hope that interviews will be held in the first week of December 2025.

The Law Society represents solicitors in England and Wales. From negotiating with and lobbying the profession's regulators, government and other decision makers, to offering training and advice, we're here to help, protect and promote solicitors.
