We are partnering with a highly respected national law firm to recruit an Employment Solicitor into its growing team based in Birmingham.

The team has a strong reputation across the healthcare, independent care, and public sectors, and is increasingly active across areas such as insurance, financial services, higher education, housing, and wider commercial organisations.

This is a fantastic opportunity to join a nationally recognised employment team advising a broad client base ranging from major public sector bodies to multinational employers.

You’ll support senior lawyers while also managing your own caseload, gaining exposure to a mix of contentious and non-contentious employment work, including complex and high-profile matters.

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.
