Corporate Partner – US Law Firm
The firm has an extensive network of offices across the United States, together with an established and growing presence in Asia. London is viewed as a strategically important bridge between these markets—connecting US clients and opportunities with the UK, Europe and Asia.
This is a financially strong and well-managed firm with a long record of sustained revenue growth. It has a substantial global corporate team, a proven appetite for lateral partner recruitment and an entrepreneurial culture that supports partners seeking to develop their practices.
The firm is genuinely integrated internationally, with a significant proportion of its work generated through collaboration between offices and practice groups. An incoming partner would therefore have meaningful access to cross-border relationships and referral opportunities, rather than simply joining a collection of overseas offices.
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.
