Why has Pricing become such a sought-after career path within the legal sector?
Well, let’s get this out the way first, one of them is the financial reward - there’s been a supply and demand issue as dedicated pricing teams have emerged and expanded over the last 10-15 years.

Combine this with impact on the bottom line, and it's no surprise that salary progression in Pricing tends to outpace any other area of legal accounts and the ceiling is high.

But it’s way more than that.

A career in pricing offers the continual development and application of a diverse range of commercial skills and attributes:

Advanced analytical skills: the ability to analyse historical data and model future scenarios, using a variety of tools to help inform decisions and assess different outcomes.

Advanced communication skills: the ability to build trust, credibility and influence within a wide community of stakeholders as you collaborate with Partners and Associates, BD and marketing, colleagues across finance and, of course, clients.

Advanced commercial/business acumen: the ability to think laterally, to see the bigger picture and maintain awareness of internal and external dynamics.

One of the teams I’ve supported with growth in recent years have a new opportunity for a Pricing Analyst in their London office.

You’ll be working alongside some of the best in the market at one of the world’s top ranked law firms.

They do the big firm thing well here. You’ll be able to tap into all sorts of opportunities for learning & development, social, sports and affinity groups and enjoy an extensive range of benefits to support your life and general wellbeing.

You will need existing relevant experience to secure an interview. That could be exposure to pricing work within the legal sector, or financial analysis within a professional services environment.

Salary guidance: £50-60k + comprehensive bens
Hybrid working; 3:2 split (additional time in office during induction)
Location: City of London
