We are working with a leading global financial institution that is looking to appoint an experienced Structured Notes Paralegal for an initial six-month assignment.
This is an excellent opportunity for a paralegal with relevant structured products or capital markets experience to join a highly regarded in-house legal team and support a broad range of transactional work.
About the Role
The primary focus of the position will be supporting the legal team with structured notes, principally across credit and rates.
The successful candidate will assist with the review, management and coordination of legal documentation relating to structured notes and associated transactions. The role will involve working closely with lawyers, front-office stakeholders and other internal teams within a fast-paced financial services environment.
There may also be opportunities to support other areas previously covered within the team, including prime services and research contracts. Direct experience in these areas is not essential, as training can be provided. However, the successful candidate should be flexible, proactive and willing to support across a broader range of matters when required.
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.
