Interim IP Lawyer Opportunity
We are excited to be recruiting for an experienced interim IP lawyer to support one of our exciting Retail & Consumer sector clients, within their in‑house legal function at the heart of one of the UK’s best‑known brands.
Role Remit
- Leading on complex, high-value matters across a range of legal areas, including managing contentious issues (incoming and outgoing claims), supporting product launches and approvals, and providing strategic advice on risk and compliance.
- Working in close partnership with Marketing, PR, and other customer-facing teams: advising on campaigns and communications, managing regulatory and advertising challenges (including complaints and clearances), and shaping risk-based decisions on major initiatives.
- Building strong relationships with stakeholders across multiple business units: understanding commercial priorities, aligning legal strategy with new business opportunities and growth areas, and enabling the business to move forward confidently within a clear risk framework.
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.
