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.
What we're looking for:
- A qualified Solicitor or CILEx (England & Wales), with experience in digital, IT, or privacy law. Pharma, biotech, or medical devices experience is a bonus.
- Strong technical grounding from a reputable firm or in-house team, paired with a genuine commitment to ethical, straightforward ways of working.
- Confidence handling complex legal problems independently and finding practical solutions.
- A clear communicator who can translate legal complexity for non-legal colleagues.
- Someone who takes feedback well and uses it to keep improving.
