About the Firm

A leading international law firm is seeking to hire both a junior-mid Associate (1–5 PQE) and Senior Associate 6+ PQE to join its Milton Keynes-based Employment team, where you will have the opportunity to work within a globally integrated practice.

This role is ideal for someone who is looking for flexible working arrangements, with office attendance only required 1 day a week.

About the Role

You will join the firm’s London employment team, working on a broad mix of work ranging from HR advisory, employment tribunal litigation, M&A and outsourcing, for multinational corporations.

Although the focus of the team is on stand-alone employment law work, you will also provide support to the corporate, restructuring, TMT, and real estate departments.

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.
