Graduate Associate in the Contentious Insolvency Team
Interpath is a financial advisory business built on agility and independence. We exist to help our clients navigate their most difficult challenges and seize transformational opportunities. Since our transition from KPMG in 2021, we have grown into the UK’s largest independent restructuring team, expanding globally and diversifying across deal advisory, M&A, and transaction services.
At Interpath, our culture is defined by our four core values:
- Do the right thing: We make the right decisions, not just the easy ones.
- All hands on deck: We stand shoulder-to-shoulder with our colleagues and clients.
- Passion drives success: We believe the impossible is always possible.
- Embrace different: From cultures to mindsets, we welcome all perspectives.
About the Role
As a Graduate Associate in the Contentious Insolvency team, you will have the unique opportunity to engage in high-stakes situations where financial restructuring intersects with legal disputes. This role will provide you with hands-on experience in managing contentious insolvency cases, working closely with both financial and legal professionals.
Your Responsibilities
- Supporting the management of contentious insolvency matters, including assessments of shareholder disputes, fraudulent conveyances, and misfeasance claims.
- Conducting thorough research and analysis to inform case strategy and evaluating the implications of financial and legal data.
- Assisting in the preparation of documentation and presentations for client meetings and court proceedings.
- Collaborating with senior teams to develop insights that guide our clients through complex insolvency processes.
- Engaging with various stakeholders, including clients, legal counsel, and creditors, to facilitate effective communication and resolution.
- Staying abreast of regulatory changes and legal developments impacting contentious insolvency.
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.
