Corporate M&A Senior Associate - Digital Infrastructure (5+ PQE) - London

A leading international law firm is looking for a Senior Associate to join its London corporate team. The team focuses on M&A in the technology, communications and gaming sectors.

Most of the deals are about the infrastructure behind these sectors: data centres, fibre and telecoms networks, and the platforms and software businesses that run on them. The team is one of the largest and best-regarded in the UK and Europe, and it's consistently ranked by Chambers and Legal 500. There's a steady flow of buy-side and sell-side M&A, growth capital and strategic investment work for private equity houses, infrastructure and institutional investors, corporates and growth companies.

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.

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.

This is a pure corporate transactional role. The deals are often cross-border and have bespoke structures, so there's plenty to get your teeth into. You'll lead transactions yourself and run teams in London and overseas, working alongside partners who only do deals in these sectors. There's also real scope to build your own client relationships and your profile in the market.

The Successful Candidate

  • At least 5 years' PQE in corporate M&A from a leading law firm;
  • Ideally, deal experience in digital infrastructure, telecoms or the wider tech sector;
  • Excellent drafting skills, and the confidence to create bespoke documents without relying on precedents;
  • Sound commercial judgement, and the ability to give clear, practical advice; and
  • A real interest in using AI tools in your work.
