- Complex financial remedy
- Private children matters
- Cohabitation disputes
- High value and complex asset cases

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.
There is genuine scope to get involved in cross-border Family work, giving you exposure to more complex international matters.
The firm also has an established Sports team and strong relationships across the sector, creating opportunities to work alongside the team and potentially act for high calibre sports clients where matters overlap.
Why this role?
This isn't a Family team being left to tick along. The firm is investing in its offering to individuals and the team is continuing to grow. You will get high quality work, exposure to sophisticated clients and the opportunity to develop your own profile within a highly regarded practice. There is also a clear route for progression for someone who wants to build a long-term career with the team.
