Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

- Drafting and negotiating supply, distribution and licensing agreements
- Technology and software contracts, and high-value service agreements

Clients span technology, software, manufacturing, retail and other consumer-facing sectors, offering genuine variety alongside increasing exposure to cross-border work.

- 3-7 years' relevant PQE, gained at a Legal 500/Chambers-ranked firm or a high-quality in-house team
- Strong, well-rounded commercial law knowledge across a broad portfolio of contracts
- Experience in IP (or a clear desire to develop expertise within it), including protection, licensing or IP aspects of transactions
