Head of Legal

A fast‑growing international organisation is seeking to appoint a Head of Legal to support the business as it expands across the UK and overseas. This is a broad, influential role offering direct access to the Board and senior leadership, with responsibility for overseeing legal risk, governance and compliance across the group.

You will act as the company’s primary legal adviser, providing clear, commercially grounded guidance on commercial contracting, regulatory matters, governance frameworks, risk management and multi‑jurisdictional compliance. Your work will help the business move at pace while maintaining clarity, control and strong decision‑making.

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.
