Description

Moore SGD Law LLP is a dynamic law firm offering a full range of legal services, uniquely positioned to help businesses, families and individuals realise their ambitions.

Our corporate team specialises in company law, group reorganisations, investments and shareholder agreements, share incentives, employee ownership trusts, management buyouts and mergers and acquisitions. We work closely with clients to help them navigate complex transactions and achieve their strategic objectives.

We’re looking for a Solicitor who enjoys working on a broad range of corporate matters. You’ll advise clients across a wide range of corporate law issues, often where legal considerations intersect with accountancy and tax work. This is a genuinely collaborative role, working closely with colleagues across the wider advisory services practice to deliver joined-up, high-quality advice.

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.
