An elite US law firm is seeking to expand its Corporate Real Estate team. The team is in growth mode and are interested to see profiles of both current Associates (approximately 1-6 PQE) and trainees qualifying in March 2027.
This is an excellent opportunity for a solicitor to work on sophisticated transactions for major international investors, sponsors and other institutional clients.
Rather than focusing on traditional property work, the role sits at the intersection of corporate, private equity and real estate, with associates gaining exposure to complex investment structures, joint ventures and transactions involving substantial real estate assets and platforms.
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.
