Job details

Thompson Mitchell Solicitors understands that talented solicitors do not always want a traditional full-time role. Whether you are returning to practice following parental leave, caring responsibilities or a career break, or you simply wish to enjoy greater flexibility while continuing to undertake rewarding legal work, the firm would be delighted to hear from you.

Thompson Mitchell is seeking an experienced solicitor to assist its growing private client and conveyancing departments. The firm is open to discussing a working pattern that suits the right candidate, including reduced hours, school-hour arrangements, or a blend of office and home working.

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.
