Job Opportunity for an Ambitious Employment Lawyer
If you’re an ambitious Employment lawyer who is ready to operate at the next level, or already there and looking for a platform with genuine growth potential, this is an opportunity to work at a firm where "Legal Director" really means something.
We’re working with a highly regarded full-service commercial firm with a clear and carefully planned growth strategy, both in London and across its wider network.

They’re now looking for a senior Employment lawyer who can help take the practice to the next stage.
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.

- Take a leading role on high-quality client work
- Mentor and supervise colleagues
Importantly, the firm backs its expectations with a special compensation and benefits package to match. Legal Director is a meaningful level here in terms of responsibility, remuneration, and recognition, with clear progression prospects for someone who succeeds.
