A fast-growing investment business is looking for a bright, commercially minded Paralegal to work closely with its Head of Legal and Head of Finance & Compliance and support a broad range of legal, corporate and regulatory projects.
The role will involve helping to coordinate and project-manage a varied pipeline of work, including supporting on a company reorganisation, company secretarial and governance matters, tax-related matters, overseas regulatory and compliance work. You will also have exposure to wider strategic initiatives, including preparations for future fundraisings.
This is a great opportunity for someone who wants genuine exposure to the legal and operational side of a growing investment business. Previous regulatory experience is not essential; candidates who are commercially minded, proactive, organised and quick to learn will be considered. You will work closely with senior stakeholders and gain insight into how legal, regulatory, finance and commercial considerations come together in a fast-paced environment.
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.
