We are looking to expand our pool of experienced qualified solicitors to mark the SQE2 written assessments and/or attendance note/legal analysis. Further information about the SQE2 written assessments and attendance note can be found in the SQE2 Assessment Specification.
We Are Looking For
Solicitors with at least two years’ post-qualification experience who are subject matter experts in one or more of the following areas:
- Business organisations, rules and procedures (including money laundering and financial services)
- Wills and Intestacy, Probate Administration and Practice
- Property Practice
- Criminal Litigation
- Dispute Resolution
Your role will be to assess the candidates’ skills and application of law against the relevant assessment criteria.
This role is homebased, and you will attend virtual marking standardisation meetings and mark the written assessments and/or attendance note online, using our online marking platform.
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.
Full marking training will be given to new markers.

Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
Please note that the selection process will include attendance at an online SQE2 marker recruitment event. This event includes a slide presentation on SQE2 assessment methodology and criteria, and a marking exercise set in the context of either a Criminal Litigation or Dispute Resolution advocacy SQE2 skills assessment (applicants need not have a litigation background as full training will be given).
The recruitment event is not remunerated, however, if your application for the role is successful, you will be paid for the marking that you do.
If you have any questions, please contact sqe2recruitment@kaplan.co.uk.
