Keystone Law is looking for a bright, enthusiastic and organised individual to join our award-winning Marketing and Business Development team.

It would be particularly well suited to someone who has a passion for uncovering details and writing.

With over 400 senior lawyers covering almost all areas of law, every day the successful candidate will learn about a wide range of confidential, complex and high-profile cases and why Keystone achieved success for their clients.

• Helping lawyers submit information via Keystone IT systems.
• Researching new lawyers joining the firm and drafting profiles for them.
• Contacting clients for feedback.
• Researching and updating contact information for key contacts.
• Monitoring and updating online listings.
• Liaising with external researchers at various directories and arranging interviews for our lawyers.
• Helping lawyers to prepare for the interviews and then sitting in on the calls with them.
• Notifying the directories about new lawyers who join the firm and updating their credentials accordingly.
• Maintaining the Keystone Law profile pages on external websites.
• Compiling results when published and sharing the results internally.
• Work alongside the PR team to produce materials which can be shared externally to celebrate achievements, including press releases and social media posts.
• Help the lawyers to celebrate achievements via their own social media pages and creating content for them if they need assistance.
• Identifying quotes and other key pieces of information which can be used in pitches, proposals and to help promote Keystone more generally.
• Updating lawyer website profiles with results when the directories are published.
• Researching information for pitches, award submissions and helping to draft entries.
• Ad hoc marketing, event coordination and support.

Ideal applicants will:

• Have excellent spelling and grammar skills.
• Be confident with computers and have a very good knowledge of Microsoft Word.
• Have excellent organisational skills whilst also being calm and methodical when dealing with large amounts of data and information.
• Be able to manage and prioritise multiple projects running in parallel with tight deadlines.
