Role Overview
We are partnering with a specialist advisory and executive search firm seeking an experienced legal-sector expert to join its Growth Advisory team. This role will play a key part in delivering high-quality advisory projects, enhancing the firm's legal-sector knowledge and propositions, and developing insight-led thought leadership to support its wider growth ambitions.
This is not a business development or origination role. The successful candidate will work closely with Partners, Directors and other client-facing colleagues who lead relationship management and new business activity. Success in this position will be driven by the quality of sector expertise, client delivery and intellectual contribution.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead defined workstreams on legal-sector advisory projects, with appropriate oversight from a Director or Partner.
- Manage day-to-day client relationships throughout project delivery, ensuring effective communication, stakeholder alignment, and a consistently high standard of service.
- Develop and maintain a deep understanding of the legal market, including law firm economics, growth strategies, business models, talent trends, AI, legal technology, and evolving client demands.
- Support project teams in framing key strategic questions, identifying relevant sources, and interpreting legal-market developments.
- Contribute to the evolution of the firm's legal-sector advisory propositions, methodologies, and reusable intellectual property.
- Produce high-quality analysis, insights, and thought leadership that enhance the firm's position within the legal sector.
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.
