The Role

An exceptional opportunity has arisen for an experienced Residential Property Solicitor to join a UK Top 50 law firm as a Legal Director within its highly regarded Residential Real Estate team. You will advise a broad client base on a wide range of residential property matters, including the acquisition, disposal and financing of high-value freehold and leasehold properties, alongside more complex conveyancing transactions.

In addition to managing your own high-quality caseload, you will play a pivotal role in developing relationships with estate agents, property finders and other key referrers, while supporting the strategic growth of the practice. The role also offers the opportunity to lead and mentor junior lawyers, contribute to thought leadership initiatives and actively participate in networking and business development activities.

The Candidate

Applications are welcomed from qualified Solicitors with a minimum of 10 years PQE specialising in residential property law. You will possess significant experience handling complex and high-value residential conveyancing matters together with excellent technical expertise and strong commercial awareness.

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.
