An outstanding opportunity has arisen to join an innovative, private equity-backed international company that is recognised as a leader in its field. The organisation is continuing to grow at pace and is looking to appoint an Employment Lawyer to join its in-house legal team on a 12-month fixed-term contract.
About the Role
Working directly with the Global Head of Employment, you will become a trusted adviser to the business, providing commercially focused employment law advice across the UK while also supporting a broad range of cross-border matters throughout Europe. This is a role that offers genuine breadth and variety, with exposure to strategic projects, business partnering, and international employment issues.
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.

- Mentoring: The Global Head is passionate about mentoring and developing the successful candidate, making this an ideal role for an ambitious employment lawyer who is keen to broaden their expertise beyond the UK and gain greater exposure to European employment law.
Requirements
We are seeking a UK-qualified employment lawyer with approximately 4–8 years' PQE who combines strong technical ability with a pragmatic, commercial approach. You will enjoy working closely with stakeholders, thrive in a fast-moving environment, and be excited by the opportunity to make a meaningful contribution within a high-performing legal team.
