Commercial Property Solicitor / Associate (2+ Years PQE) Peterborough | Multi Office Regional Practice | £45,000-£60,000

A well-established regional law firm is looking to strengthen its Commercial Property team with the appointment of a Solicitor or Associate at 2+ years’ PQE.

This is a great opportunity for someone looking to join a well-supported and established team where there is plenty of variety in the work, genuine scope to develop, and clear opportunities for progression.

The Role

You’ll work across a broad range of general commercial property matters, with no requirement to specialise in one particular area. The caseload will include:

  • Handling a varied caseload of commercial property transactions from instruction through to completion.
  • Acting on a range of commercial property acquisitions and disposals.
  • Managing a significant volume of landlord and tenant matters, acting for both landlords and tenants.
  • Advising clients on the commercial and practical aspects of their property transactions.
  • Taking responsibility for your own matters while having access to support from experienced colleagues.
  • Building and maintaining strong client relationships and becoming a trusted point of contact.
  • Working closely with Partners and senior members of the team, providing valuable exposure to more complex and high-value matters.

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.
