Our immersive understanding of these industries – combined with our expertise across high-stakes litigation and dispute resolution, world-class regulatory compliance and advisory services, and complex transactions – sets us apart. Our Global Operations Team – all business professionals of the firm – was named the "Best Business Team" by The American Lawyer.

    • Develop a deep understanding of the firm and stay informed on industry trends to proactively identify strategic media opportunities that resonate with the firm's core practice areas.
    • Build and maintain strong relationships with key journalists across business, legal, and trade press, leveraging these connections to generate and pitch story ideas that highlight the firm's expertise.
    • Coordinate with both local client development teams and PR and marketing colleagues globally, sharing information and ensuring consistent messaging.
    • Support day-to-day public relations activities, including drafting, editing, and proofreading a variety of external communications materials, awards and surveys.
    • Oversee coordinated approach by European client development teams to legal directory submissions. Establish meaningful relationships with key stakeholders at directories, collate annual results and refine firm approach to submission process.
    • Work alongside global social media team to ensure consistent and targeted use of social platforms to elevate Goodwin brand.
    • Train and prepare partners for media interactions and identify strategic writing opportunities that align with marketing and client development efforts.
    • Assist in establishing metrics and feedback mechanisms to measure the success of communication strategies and tactics.
    • Partner with Office Chairs across the European offices on local communications needs and initiatives, on an ad hoc basis and including speechwriting, ghostwriting, issues management, communications strategy and counseling.
