International Arbitration Associate – 2–4 PQE | London

We are working with a leading international law firm looking to add a 2–4 PQE Associate to its highly regarded London International Arbitration practice.

This is a growth hire rather than a replacement, driven by a particularly strong pipeline of mandates. At a time when workflow across the arbitration market can be uneven, this team remains exceptionally busy and is continuing to expand.

The practice handles sophisticated, high-value international commercial and investor-state arbitrations.

Associates gain exposure to matters including:

  • Multi-billion-dollar energy and infrastructure disputes
  • Gas price review arbitrations
  • Renewable energy and EPC disputes
  • Complex technology, licensing and IP-related disputes
  • Cross-border commercial arbitrations
  • Investor-state disputes

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.
