I am working with a leading US law firm in London that is looking to appoint an Associate into its White Collar Crime / Corporate Financial Crime practice. This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced investigations lawyer to join a highly regarded international platform and work on sophisticated, often cross-border matters for major corporates, financial institutions, and senior individuals.

- Corporate and internal investigations
- Fraud and financial crime
- Bribery and corruption
- Money laundering
- Corporate criminal liability
- Regulatory investigations
- Enforcement matters
- Compliance and risk
- Cross-border investigations
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
The team also advises businesses on the increasingly important UK corporate crime landscape, including issues surrounding the failure to prevent fraud regime and wider corporate compliance obligations.
You will work closely with senior lawyers on complex investigations, interact directly with clients, and have exposure to matters involving multiple jurisdictions and enforcement authorities.
Candidate Profile
The firm is looking for a lawyer at approximately 3–6 PQE with strong experience in White Collar Crime, Corporate Crime, Investigations, and/or Corporate Financial Crime. Candidates should ideally have:
- Training and experience from a leading City, Magic Circle, US, or international law firm
- Strong corporate investigations experience
- Exposure to financial crime matters
- Experience dealing with complex, document-heavy investigations
- Excellent drafting and analytical skills
- The ability to manage matters and work directly with clients
- Experience of cross-border investigations would be particularly valuable

The role requires a lawyer qualified in England & Wales, Australia, or New Zealand.
The Opportunity
This is a strong opportunity for an investigations lawyer looking to join a major international platform while remaining part of a relatively focused London team. The successful candidate will gain exposure to sophisticated corporate and financial crime matters, work closely with senior lawyers, and benefit from the firm's wider international network.
The position should particularly appeal to lawyers currently within established White Collar, Investigations, Corporate Crime, or Financial Crime teams who are looking for greater responsibility and international exposure.
