Associate Solicitor - Corporate - 1-3 PQE - London

Hunter Savage is hiring on behalf of a leading international law firm to appoint an Associate to its London corporate transactional practice. This is an opportunity to join an established team advising global, national and emerging businesses on significant domestic and cross-border transactions.

The role offers exposure to high-quality mandates for blue-chip clients, spanning public and private M&A, private equity, venture capital and equity capital markets, alongside corporate advisory work.

The Opportunity

This Associate position covers a broad range of corporate transactions and advisory work. You will support global, national and emerging companies on significant matters, working with colleagues across the practice and drawing on international teams where transactions have cross-border elements.

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.
