One of my clients, a leading Top 50 UK law firm, are looking to add an NQ Solicitor to join its highly regarded London Construction team.
This is an excellent opportunity for a newly qualified solicitor to join a top-ranked construction practice, working alongside experienced lawyers on a high-quality and varied caseload.
The successful candidate will focus predominantly on non-contentious construction work, advising a broad range of clients on matters including:
- Construction and engineering contracts
- Development and redevelopment projects
- Building and infrastructure projects

- Consultant and contractor agreements
- Procurement and project documentation
- General construction-related contractual matters
The work is predominantly domestic, providing an excellent opportunity to develop your expertise across a broad range of construction matters while gaining early responsibility and client exposure.
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.
