Commercial Contracts Solicitor, 2+ PQE, Birmingham, GBP DOE
An excellent opportunity has arisen for an ambitious Commercial Contracts Solicitor to join the highly regarded Commercial team of this award-winning national law firm. Working with an impressive portfolio of FTSE-listed businesses, household names, public sector organisations and growing UK businesses, this is an opportunity to enjoy exceptional quality work within a supportive and collaborative team.
To register your interest, contact Penny Trotman on 454 or email quoting Job Ref: PT 4481.
The Role
The Commercial team is recognised as one of the strongest in the UK, advising clients across sectors including automotive, aerospace, retail, food and drink, healthcare, telecoms, life sciences, financial services and real estate.
This is far more than a traditional commercial contracts role. You'll advise on a broad spectrum of complex and high-value agreements including supply and distribution agreements, outsourcing projects, logistics and warehousing arrangements, manufacturing and procurement contracts, consultancy agreements, facilities management contracts and a range of sector-specific commercial arrangements. You'll also have the opportunity to work on IT and technology contracts together with international commercial matters and major public sector projects.
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.
