Market update
We have seen a strong demand for Legal BD & Marketing talent this year, with roles consistently hitting the market. Salaries at a management level have stabilized at a fairly consistent rate.
The non-management sphere has seen more volatility, perhaps unsurprisingly, as this is a higher volume area of the market. Additionally, there’s a noticeable shortage of talent with 3-4 years of experience due to the hiring freeze during the pandemic. Consequently, many firms have had to broaden their criteria to fill vacancies.
At executive levels beyond senior management, salaries can vary significantly. Due to the rarity of these roles in the job market, one key factor influencing the salary range is the extent of people management responsibilities. Consequently, not all titles are equivalent in terms of compensation.
The team at Ambition is always happy to answer any questions you may have about the market so please don’t hesitate to contact us if we can be of assistance.
