Average Size of Megafirm Marketing Departments: 28
Megafirms in the AmLaw 100 are well-known for having well-staffed marketing departments. In fact the size ranges up to 113 people at one firm, according to Wisnik Career Enterprises, Inc. in a new factsheet the company released at the recent Marketing Partner Forum.
The most interesting takeaway is that firms on average have one marketer per 27 attorneys -- a ratio that exists for firms of all sizes. But alas, the tenure of the highly-paid marketers is short. Following is the average tenure of law firm marketers by title:
- Chief: 3.76 years
- Director: 3.66 years
- Manager 3.14 years
- Specialist: 2.75 years
- Coordinator: 2.79 years
- Assistant 2.15 years
