Your new company

Your new firm is a well-established and highly regarded law practice with a strong presence across the North West. Known for its collaborative culture and commitment to professional development, the firm offers an excellent opportunity to join a growing specialist team handling complex and high-profile matters for a diverse client base.

Your new role

Joining a specialist regulatory team, you will advise businesses, professionals, and organisations on a broad range of contentious regulatory matters. The work will include regulatory investigations, disciplinary proceedings, enforcement actions and appeals, providing exposure to varied and intellectually stimulating work. You'll manage your own caseload while working alongside experienced practitioners on more complex and high-value matters.

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.
