The Opportunity

TSR Legal are delighted to be working with a well-established and highly respected Cardiff law firm that is looking to appoint an experienced Property Legal Assistant to support a Director across both residential and commercial property matters.

This is an excellent opportunity to join a close-knit, supportive team where you’ll work directly alongside an experienced Director, gaining exposure to a varied and interesting caseload while playing a key role in ensuring transactions progress efficiently from instruction through to completion.

The Role

You’ll provide high-quality administrative and legal support across a broad range of residential and commercial property transactions, becoming an integral part of the department.

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.
