Defamation, Privacy and Data Protection Solicitor (Senior Associate / Legal Director)

Birmingham

Top International Law Firm

This is a genuinely exciting opportunity for an ambitious lawyer looking to specialise in one of the fastest-evolving areas of law. If you're currently advising on defamation, reputation management, privacy, or data protection matters and are looking for a role with greater autonomy, higher quality work, and an international platform, this could be exactly what you're looking for.

Joining a well-established Global Risks team, you'll advise an impressive client base on a broad range of complex and often high-profile matters involving defamation, misuse of private information, breach of confidence, GDPR, data protection, online reputation management, and harassment claims. You'll be involved from the earliest stages of strategic advice through to litigation where required, working alongside recognised specialists in this field.

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.
