About the Role

We're looking for an Interim Senior Legal Counsel to join a collaborative in-house legal team, supporting a diverse range of stakeholders across a complex organisation. You'll play a key role in drafting, reviewing and negotiating commercial and operational contracts, while providing pragmatic legal advice across areas including data protection, intellectual property, regulatory compliance, charity law, public law, consumer protection, and dispute resolution.

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.
