We have TWO exciting new opportunities for Alternative Dispute Officers to join our Legal Disrepair team based in Manchester or London
Reporting to the Alternative Dispute Manager
You'll be responsible for managing complex legal disrepair disputes from receipt through to resolution, applying Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) principles, investigation, negotiation, and evidence-based decision making to achieve fair, proportionate, and cost-effective outcomes.
This role supports a resolution-focused culture that improves customer experience, increases choice, and delivers better outcomes for residents while minimizing unnecessary escalation to formal legal proceedings.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
