Solicitors Regulation Authority
Requirements of the role
The Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) is creating a supervision function that will play a pivotal role in strengthening our ability to identify risks earlier, intervene proportionately and protect the public while maintaining confidence in legal services.
As Director of Supervision, you will lead the initial development and implementation of this new function, establishing the foundations on which a modern, risk-based and intelligence-led approach to supervision can grow. Working closely with senior leaders across the organisation, you will help shape and deliver the operating model, governance arrangements, capability, systems and ways of working needed to bring the function into operation.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
This is a unique opportunity to help build something from the ground up. The successful candidate is expected to join at a formative stage in the development of the function and, while an Executive Director of Supervision is also being recruited, is likely to be in post ahead of that appointment. As a result, you will have significant scope to shape the early direction, design and implementation of the function, before working in partnership with the Executive Director to embed and mature the model as it evolves.

This is not a role for someone looking to inherit a well-established operation. Success will come from being comfortable working in a developing environment, helping to shape and establish a new function whilst balancing strategic thinking with practical delivery.
