Business Crime Associate (2–5 PQE) | London
We are currently working on an opportunity with a highly regarded London disputes practice that is looking to recruit a Business Crime Associate with 2–5 years' PQE.
The role offers exposure to a broad range of sophisticated matters, including business crime, fraud, corporate investigations, sanctions, regulatory investigations and cross-border disputes. You'll work closely with experienced partners on complex, high-profile mandates, taking on meaningful responsibility from an early stage.
This opportunity would suit lawyers who have developed experience within a recognised business crime, white collar crime or investigations practice and are looking to take the next step in their career within a specialist team.
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.
