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.
Experience of shared ownership matters, bridging finance and knowledge of the Building Safety Act would be advantageous, although not essential.
Qualification
You must be a qualified Solicitor admitted in England and Wales, holding a current practising certificate.
Applications from candidates who are not admitted solicitors will not be considered for this role.
What We're Looking For
We are looking for someone who is professional, approachable and confident managing their own caseload, while also enjoying being part of a smaller team where everyone works together.
