• Guide fee proposals through relevant internal approval processes, providing commercial challenge and recommendations while identifying opportunities to strengthen pricing governance and best practice.




• Advise Partners and senior stakeholders on pricing strategy, commercial terms and negotiation approaches, including engaging directly with clients where required to support commercially sustainable outcomes.




• Ensure agreed pricing and fee arrangements are accurately documented and implemented within the firm’s systems and processes, working closely with lawyers, project managers, billers and other relevant teams.




• Drive the continued development of the firm’s pricing capability through market and trend analysis, reporting and insight, training and knowledge sharing, and the testing and application of AI use cases within pricing.

What we’re looking for

• At least three years’ experience in a pricing role, ideally within the legal or wider professional services sector.




• A proactive and self‑motivated approach, with the ability to take ownership and responsibility for key areas of work.




• Strong commercial awareness and a client‑focused mindset, with a commitment to delivering high‑quality outcomes.




• Excellent attention to detail, with the ability to maintain accuracy and sound judgement when working under pressure.
