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.
Depending on your level of experience, you will manage your own caseload of inquests on behalf of NHS and healthcare clients while also having the opportunity to become involved in a broader range of advisory and regulatory matters. The variety of work on offer provides an excellent platform for career development, increasing responsibility and progression.
The role will primarily focus on managing a caseload of inquest files for our various NHS clients, care homes and other organisations, and possibly some of the broader healthcare advisory work. The role is mainly based in the Midlands, working out of our state of the art office in Birmingham City Centre but some travel nationally may be required. With our diverse offering, there may be both the scope and need for our lawyers to be involved in work for clients outside of their core caseload.

The above is not intended to be exhaustive and you will be expected to perform other duties and have other responsibilities that fall within the wider remit of the role. You also ensure that you comply with the relevant Weightmans and client policies and procedures, and consistently work in accordance with our values.
