Build something exceptional with Birchrose Associates.
When Birchrose Associates was founded, we set out to do legal recruitment differently.
We built our reputation by becoming genuine specialists, developing long-term relationships with leading law firms and delivering a level of service founded on expertise, integrity and trust. Today, we're an established name in the UK legal recruitment market and, following the successful launch of our U.S. division last summer, we're continuing to grow.
This isn't about stepping into an established desk. It's an opportunity to help shape the future of our U.S. practice, working in one of the most exciting and rewarding legal recruitment markets in the world.
Why Birchrose?
At Birchrose, we're ambitious without compromising our values.
We believe the best recruiters become trusted advisers by building lasting relationships and delivering an exceptional experience for clients and candidates.
You'll receive hands-on training and guidance from an experienced leader who has personally worked within U.S. law firms, before gradually taking ownership of your own desk. All of this is backed by an established brand, with a successful UK division, and a genuinely supportive team. We encourage people to bring their own style, ideas and strengths, because we know there is no single formula for success.
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.

The Opportunity
Our U.S. legal division is growing rapidly, creating an exciting opportunity to join the team at an early stage.
You'll build relationships with leading U.S. law firms and legal professionals, develop your own client portfolio and manage the recruitment process from initial brief through to successful placement.
The U.S. legal market offers exceptional earning potential, and you'll be supported with the training, tools and guidance needed to build a successful, long-term career.
Working in the U.S.
Our core hours are 10am-7pm, although the nature of the U.S. market means there will be occasions when you'll take calls later in the evening to get a deal over the line. It requires flexibility and commitment, but the rewards - both financially and professionally - are exceptional.
You'll be based in our beautiful offices at Temple Chambers in the heart of London, working from the office three days a week and remotely for two.
