Job Description
I am an India-qualified Corporate and Commercial Advocate with 19 years of professional experience, specializing in commercial contract review, drafting, redlining, negotiation support, and contractual risk analysis.
I am now looking to strategically expand my independent legal practice across international markets, particularly the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, and Singapore.
To support this expansion, I am seeking an experienced Business Development Partner / Growth Consultant who can help identify commercial opportunities, establish meaningful professional relationships, and develop a sustainable international client pipeline.
This is an opportunity to build a long-term business collaboration rather than enter a conventional salaried employment arrangement.
Engagement Model & CompensationThis engagement is structured as an independent business development partnership.
- Compensation will be based on a mutually agreed revenue-sharing, profit-sharing, or commission-based arrangement.
- Commercial terms and percentage allocations will be discussed transparently and agreed upon before commencing the engagement.
- The arrangement is designed to reward measurable business development results and successfully established client relationships.
- There is no fixed salary structure.
The objective is to create a commercially sustainable relationship in which both parties benefit from the growth of the practice.
Key Responsibilities1. International Market Development
- Identify and map potential opportunities across the target international markets.
- Research law firms, corporate legal departments, LegalTech companies, ALSPs, and contract management providers.
- Develop a focused market-entry and client acquisition strategy.
2. Strategic Lead Generation & Outreach
- Identify relevant decision-makers, including General Counsel, Heads of Legal, Managing Partners, CEOs, and Legal Operations leaders.
- Develop personalized B2B outreach strategies.
- Generate qualified business leads and initiate meaningful commercial conversations.
3. Relationship Development
- Establish and nurture relationships with international law firms, corporate legal teams, and professional service providers.
- Develop referral, subcontracting, and strategic collaboration opportunities.
- Support the progression of qualified prospects into active client relationships.
4. Market Intelligence & Growth Strategy
- Monitor market demand, competitor positioning, and emerging opportunities.
- Identify sectors and organizations with a recurring need for external commercial contract support.
- Build a structured and measurable international business development pipeline.
I am particularly interested in connecting with professionals who have:
- Demonstrable experience in B2B business development, enterprise sales, or professional services consulting.
- An understanding of international legal services, legal outsourcing, LegalTech, or corporate professional services markets.
- Established professional networks or the ability to independently build relationships with senior decision-makers.
- Strong written communication, strategic outreach, negotiation, and relationship-management skills.
- The ability to work independently, take ownership of business development initiatives, and focus on measurable outcomes.
Independent business development consultants, legal-sector growth strategists, international business consultants, and experienced freelance BD professionals are encouraged to connect.
The OpportunityThe objective is not simply to generate one-time leads. It is to develop a dependable international business pipeline and build lasting commercial relationships.
I bring the legal expertise, contract execution capability, and service delivery infrastructure. The right partner will bring the market intelligence, business development expertise, and relationship-building capability needed to expand internationally.
If you have the experience and ambition to build an international professional services business through a results-oriented partnership, I would welcome an exploratory conversation.
Let's discuss the opportunity, potential markets, collaboration structure, and mutually beneficial commercial terms.
