An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Legal Counsel to join a rapidly expanding, global hedge fund.

They have had exceptional performance in a short space of time and have built out their US office with leading front and back office staff. With further strong performance already this year, they have an increased need for senior, specialist hires such as this.

They are looking to hire a Legal Counsel for their newly-established London office. Reporting directly to the General Counsel, this hire will have significant autonomy across the legal process here, leading and supporting transactions, negotiating agreements, and advising on deal restructurings. There will also be a number of wider projects you will be able to get involved in.

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.
