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 role would suit a mid-to-senior level associate who is seeking an advisory role within the internal legal function. We are open-minded as to your experience and will consider transactional, advisory or contentious backgrounds. If you have got experience of working in-house in a law firm legal function and/or have business acceptance or conflicts experience that is also highly desirable but is not essential.
The key to this role is being able to relate to stakeholders at all levels and you must have strong communications skills. You should be able to deal with complex and forensic issues as they arise and provide clear and concise advice to the firm’s fee-earners and partners. The role will require the postholder to work at a senior level across numerous jurisdictions, so it is essential that you are confident, approachable, diplomatic and able to command respect. The issues that arise are often sensitive and confidential in nature and the role directly relates to the risk profile of the firm.
