My client is a leading independent property development company. As part of a continued growth trajectory, they are looking to build out their legal function and are now looking to hire an experienced real estate development lawyer, with 8+PQE.

The successful candidate will ideally benefit from development funding experience, and particularly in relation to single family housing. Wider real estate development funding experience is key.

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.
