A leading UK Top 100 law firm is seeking an experienced Senior Corporate Associate to join their dynamic team in Guildford, South of London.

About the Role

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Working on a variety of matters such as corporate restructures, mergers and acquisitions (M&A), joint ventures, shareholder and board advisory services, and general corporate governance.
  • Managing your own caseload, taking the lead on transactions.
  • Supporting Partners on high-value and complex matters.

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.
