Marketing and Business Development Coordinator

Marketing and Business Development CoordinatorA well-established law firm with a strong reputation in multiple Southern markets is expanding into Buckhead, Atlanta, and is seeking a motivated Marketing & Business Development Coordinator to help grow its newest office location!

This is an excellent opportunity for an early-career marketing professional who is outgoing, polished, highly communicative, and excited by the idea of building relationships in the Atlanta business and legal community. The role is ideal for someone who enjoys networking, attending events, representing a professional brand, and gaining more hands‑on experience in marketing, business development, client relations, and brand growth.

For the right person, this is a chance to get in early with a growing office and build real experience, not just sit behind a desk making Canva flyers into the void!

Candidates with strong ties to the Southeast region, prior experience in legal or governmental settings, heavy involvement in campus organizations, legal internships, alumni networks, Greek life, business clubs, marketing associations, athletics, event planning, hospitality, sales, or community organizations are encouraged to apply.

What You’ll Do

The Marketing & Business Development Coordinator will support the firm’s efforts to grow brand awareness, strengthen community relationships, and develop new business opportunities for their new Buckhead office.

Responsibilities may include:

• Representing the firm at networking events, business functions, community events, and professional association meetings
• Assisting with business development initiatives to help grow the firm’s presence in the Atlanta market
• Building and maintaining relationships with referral sources, community partners, professional contacts, and potential clients
• Coordinating marketing events, sponsor ships, lunches, presentations, and outreach opportunities
• Supporting social media, digital marketing, email campaigns, newsletters, and website updates
• Helping create marketing materials, firm announcements, event promotions, and branded content
• Tracking business development activity, contacts, follow-ups, and marketing results
• Assisting attorneys and firm leadership with client development efforts
• Researching local market opportunities, competitors, organizations, and events relevant to the firm’s growth
• Serving as a professional and enthusiastic representative of the firm’s brand in the Buckhead and greater Atlanta business community

What We’re Looking For

The ideal candidate is personable, confident, organized, and eager to grow in a professional marketing and business development role. This person should be comfortable walking into a room, introducing themselves, starting conversations, and representing a respected law firm with professionalism and polish.

Qualified candidates should have:

• Bachelor’s degree in Marketing, Business, Communications, Public Relations, or a related field required
• Recent graduates and early‑career candidates are encouraged to apply though mid‑career candidates would be more than welcome!
• Strong interest in marketing, business development, branding, client relations, and professional networking
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills
• Professional presence and comfort attending in‑person events
• Outgoing, relationship‑driven personality with strong follow‑up skills
• Strong organizational skills and ability to manage multiple projects at once
• Familiarity with social media platforms, digital marketing, Microsoft Office, Canva, CRM tools, or email marketing platforms is a plus
• Interest in the Atlanta business community, professional services, or legal industry preferred
• Prior internship, campus leadership, sales, hospitality, event planning, marketing, or customer‑facing experience is a plus

Why This Role Stands Out

This is not a traditional entry‑level marketing role where you are buried in spreadsheets all day! This position is highly people‑facing and offers the chance to help launch and grow a new office location for a firm that already has an established name and strong foundation in other markets. You’ll be a valuable part of their already wonderful team and experience career growth from Day 1.

You will gain valuable experience in:

• Marketing
• Brand building
• Professional networking
• Event coordination
• Legal industry operations

Location

Buckhead, Atlanta, GA

In‑person role with local networking and event attendance required.

Ideal Background

This opportunity may be especially well‑suited for a recent graduate with a degree in Marketing, Business, Communications, Public Relations, or a related field who is excited to build a career in a polished, professional, relationship‑driven environment.
