A highly regarded North West law firm is looking to appoint a Commercial Property Solicitor (1–4 years PQE) to join its thriving team.

With a reputation for delivering commercially focused legal advice and an impressive client base, this is an excellent opportunity for an ambitious solicitor seeking high-quality work, genuine career progression, and a supportive, forward-thinking culture.

The successful candidate will join a busy and well-established Commercial Property team that advises investors, lenders, developers, entrepreneurs, and estate owners on a broad range of commercial property matters. The work is varied and engaging, covering landlord and tenant matters, residential and commercial development projects, and complex transactional work for regional and national clients.

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.
