Corporate & Commercial Paralegal – Direct Training Contract progression

I am working with a highly respected UK Top 100 law firm seeking a driven and ambitious Corporate & Commercial Paralegal to join its Central London team, working closely with high-profile City partners on a broad range of challenging corporate & litigation matters.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Supporting partners and senior lawyers on corporate transactions, including M&A
  • Conducting legal research
  • Drafting and preparation of legal documents and reports

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.
