Are you a go-getter? Easily bored by tedious jobs? Looking for the excitement and opportunities that come from being part of a fast-growing, entrepreneurial company? An experienced events professional that's looking for the rush of events work but would rather not be living out of a suitcase anymore If so, then we have an amazing opportunity for you!
How to Manage A Small Law Firm is a fast-growing company specializing in helping small law firm owners grow their business. We're growing so fast and with such a strong member base that we made the prestigious INC 5000 list 4 years in a row! We are still "building the bicycle" as we ride it to keep-up with our fast-pace of growth.
We are based in South Miami, FL but we have a ton of remote team members and a national clientele who find us online, from speeches, workshops and sponsorships, lead-generation advertising and of course by referrals from one of our hundreds of raving fans.
Our core business is as the largest provider of "outside" CEO, COO & CFO services for start-up, solo and small businesses across the country. Our typical client has gross revenues between $0 (start-up) to typically under $5MM. They're owner-operated. And very often they have no idea what they're doing when it comes to the management of a business, marketing, sales, financial controls, and strategic planning.
We are NOT a multi-level network marketing company. We are direct service provider of one-on-on business advising services to brick and mortar law firms around the country. We hire the best in the business in Law Practice management advisors and support our clients with a combination of coaching, educational programs, and live meetings.
Compensation & Role
We provide a wide variety of events & workshops from 10-person intimate masterminds to 500+ person multi-day events and everything in between.
This is NOT a passive job. There is no script. There is no checklist for the day. Every day will be different, every task will be different, and we are looking for someone to help us build the systems, not whine about why there are no systems And yes, some of it will still be tedious because, well sometimes we all have to take out the trash (figurately, not literally).
On the upside, we have some of the BEST clients in the world and since we are a member-driven company, our clients stay fairly consistent over time allowing us to develop meaningful relationships with them. Outstanding customer service and meticulous attention to detail will be a key contributor in continuing to foster those relationships!
