We are recruiting for a non-contentious Associate or Senior Associate to join our Projects, Infrastructure & Construction team (PIC), aligned to either Glasgow or Birmingham (though we would be open to considering candidates in other locations), with flexible hybrid working.
This opportunity is ideally suited to a non-contentious construction lawyer, though we are also interested to speak to people with a mixed contentious and non-contentious practice.
PIC has expertise across various sectors, including commercial development, renewable energy, utilities, civil and other heavy engineering, real estate and infrastructure. We also benefit from a broad client base, which includes real estate developers, energy and utilities companies, developers, funders and various significant public sector organisations.
PIC has enjoyed significant growth and investment, making it an exciting and rewarding team to be a part of. The national Legal 500 team (with a presence in Glasgow, Belfast, Bristol, Birmingham, Manchester and London) comprises approximately 40 people, including support and lawyers across all levels of seniority. Nine of the team are partners.
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.
