Competition Litigation Associate | 1–5 PQE | London
An elite international law firm is looking to strengthen its highly regarded Competition Litigation practice with the appointment of an ambitious Associate at 1–5 PQE.
This is an opportunity to join a market-leading team handling some of the UK and Europe’s most complex and high-profile competition disputes, working alongside leading practitioners across a genuinely international platform.
The role will have a strong contentious focus, with particular exposure to private enforcement, competition litigation and collective actions. The successful lawyer will be involved in matters before the High Court and Competition Appeal Tribunal, as well as complex, multi-jurisdictional disputes and investigations.
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.
