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.

Hybrid Working
The firm operates a flexible hybrid working policy. Solicitors below Associate level will be required to work from the Cardiff office on a full-time basis during their probationary period. Following successful completion of probation, hybrid working will be available, with the option to work from home one day per week. More senior candidates can, subject to experience, expect a greater level of flexibility on hybrid working.
If you're looking to join a leading Employment team where your career can develop alongside high-quality work and an excellent culture, I'd be delighted to hear from you. Contact Sam Higgins at Simpson Judge on 07770109301 or email sam.higgins@simpsonjudge.co.uk.
