Legal & Compliance Administrator
Job Title: Legal & Compliance Administrator
Location: Watford (on-site)
Hours: Full-time, Mon-Fri 9am-6pm
Salary: Up to £30,000 DOE
Reports to: CCO
The Role
We're hiring a dedicated Legal & Compliance Administrator to take full ownership of our court case management, fines, and legal correspondence. We retail over 1,500 vehicles a month, and with that scale comes a steady flow of legal admin that needs to be handled accurately and on time.
This is a role where organisation and attention to detail really matter. It's ideal for someone with paralegal or claims-handling experience who is highly organised and wants real ownership of a function.
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.
