Arabic-Speaking Arbitration Associate

London | 3-6+ PQE | Hybrid | Market Leading Compensation

An excellent opportunity for an international arbitration lawyer to join a highly regarded specialist disputes practice in London. Fluency in Arabic is a key requirement for this position, alongside strong experience in complex commercial and/or investment arbitration.

The role will suit an arbitration lawyer who is looking to work on sophisticated international disputes, with the opportunity to take on significant responsibility and work closely with leading practitioners and international clients.

Key Responsibilities

  • Developing case theory and strategy across complex international arbitration matters.
  • Drafting written submissions and overseeing work undertaken by more junior lawyers.
  • Conducting detailed legal research and analysis across complex legal and factual issues.
  • Assisting with the preparation of witness and expert evidence.
  • Working with clients, witnesses, experts, tribunals and opposing counsel throughout the life of a matter.

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.
