An exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced Senior Executive Assistant to join the senior leadership team of a leading law firm.

Supporting the Senior Partner and a senior business leader, this is a pivotal role requiring a highly proactive, commercially minded EA who can anticipate needs, manage competing priorities and build trusted relationships across the business.

Key responsibilities:

  • Complex diary and inbox management
  • End-to-end billing, including time recording
  • Client matter opening and file management
  • Coordinating complex international travel and high-level events
  • Developing a strong understanding of key clients, business priorities and stakeholder requirements
  • Building relationships with senior internal and external stakeholders
  • Proactively identifying and resolving issues before they arise

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.
