The opportunity
As an Associate in our Serious Injury team, you will play a senior role within one of the UK’s largest claimant serious injury practices, handling complex RTA claims and helping shape the strategy and outcome of life-changing cases.
You will lead a dedicated team, supported by assistant fee earners and paralegals on serious injury matters involving complex liability, quantum, rehabilitation and settlement strategy. The work is genuinely specialist, with Associates operating within defined case value bands rather than across a broad mixed caseload, allowing greater focus and deeper expertise.
This is a role for experienced serious injury practitioners who want to work in an environment built around quality of practice, sound judgement and strong client outcomes. Our model is designed to provide the time, support and autonomy needed to handle complex work properly, without individual billing targets driving decision-making.
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.
