About the Role

Global technology business looking for a Senior Counsel for a three-month period with the possibility of extension. Hybrid working arrangement with 2 days per week in the office (which can either be Central London or Hampshire). This position requires a quick turnaround so you must be either immediately available or on short notice (max two weeks).

Responsibilities

  • Leading the negotiation of key commercial deals for the business, largely centered around technology/SaaS, MSAs, reseller contracts, and professional services agreements.
  • Providing more generalist advice on matters such as data privacy, product launches, corporate governance, and intellectual property.

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.
