About the Role

International services business looking for an M&A Counsel to join them for an immediate start to assist through a period where multiple transactions are taking place. This will be an initial two-month engagement with the likelihood of extension to six months. The position can be on a fully remote basis (although there is the option to work in the Central London offices should you wish). You must be based, and have the right to work, in the UK.

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.
