An established UK business with offices around the country and work overseas is adding a part-time solicitor to its small in-house legal team. You can be based in either Glasgow or Cardiff.
Part-time roles at this level are usually a full-time workload with a discount attached. This one is not. It is a newly created position, scoped from the outset as three days, brought in to give an experienced General Counsel some proper support rather than to replace someone who has left.
The work is commercial contracts and the compliance that sits around them.
Day to day:
- Reviewing and marking up client and supplier agreements
- Keeping documents moving, chasing comments and getting things over the line
- Flagging where the business is exposed on contract, insurance and regulatory risk
- Drafting the paperwork that sits behind all of it
- Being a sensible, approachable person for colleagues to come to for a steer
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.

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.
What matters to them:
- You understand contract and commercial law and how compliance works in practice
- Construction contracts exposure would be helpful
- You can draft properly without someone checking every line
- You can hold several things at once and ask when you need input
- You explain legal points clearly to people who are not lawyers
- You are measured about risk rather than reflexively cautious
They are open on level and on how you got here. Solicitors and legal executives are equally welcome, and the route to qualification matters less than how you work.
