Requirements of the role
Working in this high-profile role, you will manage your own portfolio of cases, investigate financial discrepancies and inaccuracies and analyse complex information and data.
You will attend law firms throughout England and Wales to determine whether there has been serious professional misconduct, which includes breaches of the SRA Accounts Rules.
You will gather evidence, both remotely and onsite, interview key individuals and obtain witness statements. You will compile robust, clear, evidence-based and factual reports of the findings that will inform our regulatory decisions. This could lead us to take disciplinary proceedings or to close a law firm. You will also represent the SRA in court, giving evidence of your investigation’s findings.
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.
You will need to be able to review and analyse complex information, including numerical and accounting information, and documents relating to legal transactions. The role will require you to develop a strong understanding of our Standards and Regulations. This includes the SRA Solicitors Accounts Rules which set out how solicitors record and account for client money.
