About the Role
We are looking for an experienced Corporate/Commercial Solicitor, or a lawyer with an equivalent qualification, to join our team. You will have at least four years’ post-qualification experience or equivalent experience in corporate and commercial law and be confident managing a mixed caseload.
Responsibilities
The role will involve advising businesses on a range of matters, which may include acquisitions and disposals, shareholder and partnership arrangements, and the drafting and negotiation of commercial agreements. You will manage your own files, provide clear, practical advice and build lasting relationships with 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.
