Below you will find further information on some selected, exciting areas at CMS. In addition to these, there are often unique positions that do not fit into these categories. Take a look at our current vacancies and find out how you can become part of our team with your unique expertise.
 

Our legal assistants (Rechtsanwaltsfachangestellte) and other assistants are truly multi-talented.
They manage the interface between clients and lawyers, maintain an overview even in stressful situations and keep track of all deadlines. As one of our assistants, you can contribute and develop your diverse talents in independent communication, handling client-specific topics and carrying out travel management.

In Business Development, you will play a key role in the strategic orientation and further development of our law firm.
In cooperation with other divisions, you will define objectives, develop strategies for their implementation and evaluate the results.

We will rely on you to recognise trends, draw up successful business plans and find smart solutions, for example in digitalisation. You will be at the forefront when we open up new markets and support our partners in acquiring demanding clients. You will be in constant dialogue with the Marketing, Public & Media Relations, CRM, Business Data and Products divisions.

In corporate responsibility, you will help to ensure that our law firm acts sustainably, socially and responsibly. You will develop projects, shape change, promote diversity and combine strategic thinking with practical action. You will play a key role in working with other areas to further develop CMS's commitment to sustainability. 

In Finance & Operations, you will be tasked with keeping a close eye on our law firm's success.
You will supply key financial data and hence support management in controlling corporate decisions. In addition to controlling, your division is also responsible for (tax) financial accounting.
You will also be responsible for our invoices, taking into account tables of fees and individual letters of engagement. In this context, you will monitor billing deadlines and be the first point of contact for questions.

Marketing is an integral part of our law firm and plays a crucial role, not just in the acquisition of new clients.
As part of our innovative team, you will implement campaigns, be responsible for specific marketing tools and maintain relationships with our cooperation partners. The Public & Media Relations division is the point of contact for all matters relating to the firm's press and public relations work.
The colleagues' work includes taking care of media positioning, arranging interviews and managing social media activity.

In the Office Management division, you will ensure that the day-to-day operations of our law firm run smoothly and make a significant contribution to our organisation and efficiency. In Human Resources, you will help shape the future of our law firm by attracting, nurturing and supporting talent. Become part of a team that combines excellence, team spirit and innovation.

As part of our IT team, you will maintain and optimise our entire infrastructure. This includes end-user hardware, our telecommunication systems, printers and copiers as well as complex software applications.
You will also support us in diagnosing and rectifying faults. In this context, you will be in close contact with the User Help Desk in Berlin. You can be sure our colleagues will be grateful for your wisdom!

In the Business Projects division, you will accompany our teams from when they first have their ideas to when their projects are successfully executed. As the central point of contact, you will provide support with planning, implementation and follow-up and you will supply suitable tools and processes. In addition, you will play a crucial role in the areas of communication, change management and user adoption to ensure that changes are anchored for the long term and successfully adopted.

In addition, you will drive the further development of the project management culture at CMS and create a basis for efficient collaboration and innovative solutions. Together with your team, you will turn ideas into successful projects.

Our Risk & Compliance department ensures that we are successful in the long term
In this team, you will be responsible for compliance with regulatory requirements associated with legal work. This is a job for someone with keen eyes and a bright mind.
You will also be responsible for general legal matters relating to the firm. Information security and data protection will also be in your hands.

The first impression is crucial. That's why we depend on the professional and friendly manner of our Service & Reception staff. You will be the first point of contact at CMS and will keep our conferences running smoothly.
