About the Role

My client, a leading investment management with significant AUM, is seeking a 2-6 PQE Corporate lawyer looking to transition into a generalist asset management role to join their dynamic legal team.

This role will focus on advising on their asset management business in Europe, ensuring compliance with regulatory frameworks, and supporting global asset management initiatives.

Key Responsibilities

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.
