Why join us?

This is an excellent opportunity to join DWF Intelligence as an Intelligence Support Assistant, providing operational and administrative support to a busy intelligence and investigations team. The role supports a broad range of matters across motor claims, fraud, major injury, corporate investigations and wider intelligence-led work.

Working alongside Intelligence Managers, Analysts and Senior Analysts, you will help coordinate new instructions, manage incoming correspondence, maintain accurate information across case management systems and support the delivery of high-quality intelligence outputs. You will receive training and support to develop your understanding of the intelligence function, the team’s processes and the standards required when handling confidential information.

Whilst the team operates as national structure team supporting the wider DWF Regional offices throughout the UK, this role is based in our Manchester or Liverpool office on a hybrid basis, with monthly office attendance required.

Responsibilities

Key Responsibilities:

  • Provide general administrative and operational support to the Intelligence team
  • Organise and monitor incoming correspondence, instructions and busy team mailboxes
  • Support new instruction administration, ensuring information is captured accurately and progressed promptly
  • Assist with diary management, meeting coordination, travel arrangements and minute taking where required
  • Support billing and matter administration for completed work, helping the team meet financial and service expectations
  • Obtain, check and record relevant information from internal systems and case management platforms
  • Maintain accurate records and ensure information is stored and handled in line with firm procedures
  • Work collaboratively with colleagues to support wider investigations and client service delivery
  • Manage workload effectively, meeting deadlines, service levels and performance expectations
  • Follow firm policies and procedures at all times, ensuring confidentiality, GDPR and data protection principles are maintained

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.
