German-Speaking Legal PA

International Law Firm | London | Permanent

Fluent German speakers – this could be a great opportunity for you!

I'm working with a leading international law firm that's looking for an experienced German-speaking Legal PA to join a busy and highly regarded team.

You'll be supporting several Partners, including the Head of Civil Law, in a fast-paced and international environment. German is essential, with regular communication across international offices and with German-speaking clients.

This is a role for someone who is energetic, proactive and has a real can-do attitude. The team is busy, so they're looking for someone who doesn't wait to be asked, enjoys getting stuck in and can simply get on with things.

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.
