Job Description
Join one of the largest specialist teams in the health sector and one of the leading advisers to health bodies in England and Wales
We're seeking an experienced Senior Associate to join our Clinical Negligence team, to be based in either our Birmingham, Nottingham, Manchester or Cardiff office.
This is an opportunity to conduct clinical negligence claims on behalf of defendant clients, particularly the NHS LA, providing a range of high-quality legal services on complex matters. You'll manage your own caseload including high value and complex claims, whilst delegating and supervising tasks to more junior lawyers.
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.
