I'm working with an energy infrastructure organisation looking for a junior construction contract specialist to join their Commercial team. This organisation prides itself on fostering a strong workplace culture, where people prefer collaborating in the office despite the hybrid working allowance. You will be supported to grow professionally all the while building long-lasting relationships with people across the business.
About the Role
You will support a Commercial team of 5 and a wider Services team of 50 in reviewing a range of construction contracts for various projects, including NEC and JCT with the assistance of the in-house Legal function.
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.
You will enjoy a range of company benefits, including a 5% annual bonus and competitive salary, as well as hybrid working opportunities. During your initial onboarding, this role will be site-based so you can embed yourself in the business and build lasting professional relationships with your team and various stakeholders. From that point, 3-4 days on-site will be flexible.
For any paralegals interested in the role, there is the possibility to qualify via SQE route in the Commercial team.
