🚨 Interim Employment Lawyer – Urgent Requirement
We're looking for an experienced employment lawyer to provide immediate interim support to a specialised virtual law firm that provides on-demand, in-house legal support for high-growth and startup companies.
The firm works with ambitious start-ups and scale-ups, effectively acting as an extension of their internal teams. We therefore need someone who understands the realities of advising fast-moving, founder-led businesses, where the answer needs to be legally sound but also practical and commercially workable.
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.
We’re particularly interested in lawyers who have:
- Strong UK employment law experience
- Advised start-ups, scale-ups or early-stage businesses in private practice; and/or
- Worked in-house within an early-stage or high-growth business
- Experience handling day-to-day employee relations matters, contracts, policies, performance issues, exits and other employment matters
- The confidence to give pragmatic, decisive advice directly to founders and senior stakeholders
- The ability to get up to speed quickly and operate with a high degree of autonomy
