If you’re looking for a senior BD role where you’ll have real ownership, direct partner access and the opportunity to shape a newly created position - while only needing to be in the office twice a week - this could be worth exploring. The approach here is flexible, relaxed and built on trust.

You’ll step into a broad role supporting a highly regarded Disputes practice, working across areas including Investigations, White Collar Crime, Regulatory and Public Law.

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.

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.

It’s a strategic position where you’ll work closely with partners on growth plans, client development and profile-raising initiatives.

This is the kind of role where you’ll be trusted to think commercially, challenge ideas and influence decisions. You’ll also lead and develop two junior managers, making it a genuine leadership opportunity rather than a delivery-only role.

Just as importantly, you’ll be joining a strong team. You’ll work for an excellent Head of BD who gives autonomy, values ideas and creates an environment where people are supported to grow. Senior stakeholders across the firm see BD as a strategic function, so your input will be valued.
