Property and Trusts Adviser
We are seeking a qualified property professional (ideally a qualified solicitor) with significant experience of property asset trust matters. This is a full time, permanent role within our Property Team with responsibility for legal and regulatory matters affecting the Board’s investment land, property assets, custodian and other trusts. Flexible terms and working patterns (including hybrid working) are possible for the right candidate. You will need to be able to spend some of your working time at the diocesan offices (currently in St Albans).
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.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
