MBM Commercial Edinburgh

MBM Commercial is a market-leading law firm, with offices in Edinburgh, Glasgow and London, specialising in corporate transactions with a particular focus on M&A and investment for scaling companies in the technology sector. Our experienced team regularly advise on complex matters, often involving US and cross-jurisdictional issues as part of our clients scaling-up and operating on a global basis.

As our Corporate Group continues to grow, we are looking for a talented Corporate Solicitor (1–2 years PQE) to join our Corporate team, which operates from offices in Edinburgh and Glasgow.

The Role

This is an exciting opportunity to work on a broad range of corporate transactions, including equity investment rounds, mergers and acquisitions, shareholder arrangements, corporate restructurings, start-up and scale-up matters and cross-border transactions. You’ll advise founders, investors and companies at every stage of their growth journey, giving you exposure to high-quality work and direct client contact from an early stage.

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.
