Senior Associate – Commercial Disputes | Guildford | Partnership Track

Looking for a role where your career can genuinely move forward?

I'm working with a highly regarded, growing regional law firm that's investing in its Dispute Resolution practice and is looking to appoint an experienced Senior Associate to join its Guildford office.

This is an opportunity to take on a varied and high-quality caseload, including complex commercial litigation, contractual disputes, shareholder disputes, and strategic client work. You'll have the opportunity to mentor junior lawyers, build client relationships, and play a key role in the continued growth of the team.

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.
