Our client, a leading international professional services firm, is looking to hire an experienced corporate lawyer to join its in-house legal team.

The successful candidate would work across a broad range of corporate transactional, advisory, and governance matters, and would also manage/lead a small team. The team works on a hybrid basis with its lawyers coming into the office (in central London) for a minimum of 1 day per week.

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.
