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.
As an IP Paralegal, you will play a key role in supporting Fee Earners, taking ownership of a wide variety of substantive tasks that do not require a qualified attorney. Most of the routine, structured work is handled by dedicated Formalities and Legal Assistant Teams. This allows our Paralegals to focus on more interesting, analytical, and varied work that draws on their experience and judgement. Once established in the role, you’ll be trusted to manage your workload independently, apply your knowledge to complex matters, and become an integral part of delivering exceptional client service.

Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
Our Paralegal Team is made up of experienced professionals with expertise spanning Patents, Trade Marks, Designs and Assignments. While experience across all these areas is not essential, a willingness to broaden your knowledge and collaborate across disciplines will help you thrive in this stimulating and rewarding role.
Please note that whilst this role will involve working closely with our Fee Earning teams, it is not a pathway into a Trainee Patent Attorney position.
