Thrings
Thrings is a vibrant expanding law firm with a diverse client base offering excellent career prospects to talented and driven individuals. We operate in offices in Bristol, Bath, London, Swindon and Romsey, serving clients within the UK, but increasingly with an international presence.
We’re a client-focused firm who has award-winning lawyers working for us. We’re noted by Chambers & Partners for the relationships we’ve built with our clients, and the increasing presence we’re building in the markets and clients we serve. We provide a range of services to different clients in areas such as Agriculture, Private Client, Corporate & Commercial and Commercial Property and are noted for having specialists that practice in each of these areas. We work across offices, with different practice areas to best serve the needs of our clients.
About The Role
We're seeking a Solicitor to join our Band 1 ranked Agricultural Property team based in our Romsey office.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone with an Agricultural or Commercial Property background who is looking to build a specialist career in agricultural property. You'll join an established, friendly, and collaborative team that is committed to developing internal talent, offering opportunities for progression and long-term career development, with the support of experienced colleagues at every stage.
You'll have the opportunity to contribute your existing property expertise while developing specialist knowledge in agricultural property. The team acts for landowner clients, predominantly on development projects, and is recognised for building trusted, long-standing relationships with both clients and referrers.
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.
