Business Development Manager

Job Description

Job Description

Leadman & Associates is excited to present a unique Business Development Manager opportunity with a rapidly growing provider of legal support services. This is a high-reward, relationship-driven sales role offering the flexibility of a startup with the backing of a well-established player in the space.

Locations: Phoenix, AZ | Seattle, WA | Chicago, IL | Detroit, MI | Columbia, SC | California (Remote but must be local for in-person meetings)

(Full-Time | Remote w/ Local Travel)

Ideal for an experienced BDM in the legal services industry—or an ambitious sales professional eager to break in—this role focuses on building strong client relationships and driving revenue growth across a suite of services, including Court Reporting, Record Retrieval, Jury Research, Litigation Graphics, and Language Services.

Why You Should Consider This Opportunity

• High-Earning Potential: Base salary + uncapped, compound commissions (top earners exceed $1M in annual sales)

• Training Provided: Full onboarding into the industry and services offered—no legal background required

• Expansive Territory: Multiple openings in major metros with flexibility to build business locally

• Career Growth: Be part of a team where your initiative and results are directly rewarded

• Perks: Travel opportunities, expensed meals/events, autonomy, and strong internal support

In This Role, You Will:

• Build and manage a pipeline of law firm and corporate legal clients

• Prospect new business through phone outreach, networking, and in-person meetings

• Attend legal industry trade shows and conferences (overnight travel required)

• Develop long-term relationships and become a trusted partner in legal support services

• Track and report progress toward sales goals and KPIs

• Represent a full suite of solutions with tailored sales strategies

What You Bring to the Table:

• 2+ years of B2B sales experience (legal services sales a major plus)

• A proactive, “hunter” mentality—you enjoy chasing and closing new business

• Excellent interpersonal and relationship-building skills

• Curiosity and coachability—a drive to learn both industry and client needs

• Integrity, persistence, and a strong work ethic

• Familiarity or personal connections within the legal industry a bonus

Why This Role Stands Out

This isn't your typical sales role—it's a chance to build your own book of business with unmatched flexibility and upside. Whether you're already in legal services or hungry to break in, you'll be trained, supported, and given the runway to thrive. If you're competitive, consultative, and ready to make serious commission, this opportunity was built for you.
