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.
The environment is collaborative and forward thinking. Lawyers are given real investment at every stage of their careers through mentoring, leadership training and structured progression, and the firm's track record of developing senior talent from within is one of its most compelling attributes.
The Role
The Real Estate Disputes team operates as a standalone function within the firm, working closely with the wider general disputes practice and maintaining a strong collaborative relationship with the transactional Real Estate team.
At Senior Associate level you will take on genuine responsibility, running your own complex matters with a good degree of autonomy whilst working closely alongside partners on the most significant instructions.

Business development is actively encouraged at this level, with real opportunities to develop client relationships and contribute to the continued growth of the practice.
