We are working with one of the largest financial services organisations across Asia, which has a strong and growing presence throughout Europe. This bank has harnessed a consistent and stable flow of business and continues to perform well so it is a great time to join.

The EMEA legal team is now looking for an experienced Employment Lawyer to join their legal team, initially for an approx. 7-month basis. The successful candidate will occupy a visible role with plenty of breadth and responsibility, encompassing:

  • The development of employment policies, procedures and templates/contracts across the UK business in line with company strategy and legislative change;
  • Management of the employment/organisational aspects of restructurings and/or acquisitions (including TUPE);
  • Guiding the process of any complex grievances/investigations involving senior members of staff, which may include settlement agreements and negotiations at MD level or higher.
  • Management of external HR legal advice and costs where needed, including those associated with employee litigation and disputes.
  • Close collaboration with HR Business Partners and Employee Relations colleagues in change management initiatives, to minimise legal risk and ensure better outcomes for employees and the business.

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.
