Technology Risk Lawyer (c.3-4 PQE) | Leading Global Law Firm | London (In-House)
We are working with a leading global law firm on an in-house Technology Risk Lawyer position within their Regulatory Compliance team in London. This is a genuinely distinctive opportunity for a technology and AI regulation specialist to become the go-to lawyer on technology risk within one of the most sophisticated legal environments in the world, at a time when the firm is investing heavily in AI and new technology across its global platform.
The role sits at the centre of the firm's adoption of new technology and AI tools, acting as the first port of call in assessing the legal and regulatory risks and issues arising from their deployment. The work spans advising on the adoption and use of AI tools and platforms, contributing to AI governance frameworks and the completion of AI Impact Assessments, maintaining and developing global technology and AI policies, horizon scanning for new legal and regulatory requirements, reviewing AI language in client engagement terms and supporting responses to client AI-related due diligence and risk queries.
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.
