A leading international intellectual property firm is looking to appoint an Electronics & Technology Technical Specialist to join its UK team. The firm works with some of the world's most innovative technology-led businesses and has a strong reputation for handling complex technical and intellectual property matters.

This is an excellent opportunity for a STEM graduate or technically experienced professional to develop their career within a specialist IP environment, with a strong emphasis on technical expertise rather than traditional legal work.

The successful candidate will focus primarily on the technical side of intellectual property, working closely with patent attorneys and clients on a range of electronics and emerging technology matters. You will use your technical knowledge to understand, analyse and communicate complex technologies, with exposure to areas such as semiconductors, telecommunications, electrical engineering, software and other high-tech technologies.

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.
