Interim Legal Opportunities | Global Financial Institution | London
Three seats. One of the biggest platforms in the market. Zero back-seat roles.
We're partnering with a leading global financial institution on a run of high-impact interim mandates - the kind of opportunities that don't sit on job boards for long. If you're a lawyer who wants live, high-stakes exposure without the long-term commitment, this is worth a serious look.
Equity Derivatives Lawyer | 6 months
Join a business on a genuine growth trajectory. You'll be at the centre of new market expansion, major 2026 regulatory implementation (CCI, CRDVI), platform automation and AI-adoption initiatives, and pre-trade documentation enhancement. Fast start needed - this one won't wait.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
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.
Credit & Lending Lawyer | 12 months+
A meaty, long-running mandate for a qualified lawyer with strong lending experience (leveraged or project finance a bonus, not essential). Real autonomy, real stakeholder exposure - you'll be trusted to shape commercially sound outcomes and engage senior management directly, not just execute instructions.
Leveraged Acquisition & Event Financing Lawyer | ~5 months
Interim cover on a high-profile leveraged and event financing desk while a permanent hire is secured. Ideal for a TLB-literate finance lawyer who wants to step straight into live, complex, cross-border deal flow with immediate impact.
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
Why these matter:
- Genuine platform, genuine deal quality - not a holding pattern
- Fast-moving processes - some of these need to move within days, not weeks
- A real look at what interim life in a top-tier institution actually involves
- Flexibility without sacrificing the calibre of work
If any of these sound like your next move - or even just piqued your curiosity - we'd love to talk. Confidential, no-pressure conversations always welcome.
