Founding Board Member / Angel Investor

πŸ“ Forensic Times | Media & Investigative Journalism πŸ“Œ Remote / Hybrid | Part-Time | Equity-Based Role


About Forensic Times

Forensic Times is a growing investigative media platform dedicated to forensic journalism, crime analysis, and evidence-based reporting. We are expanding our leadership team and seeking a strategic Board Member who believes in the power of independent media β€” and wants equity in it.


The Role

This is a Founding Board Member seat for an experienced professional ready to contribute both strategic guidance and angel investment capital. In return, you receive meaningful equity ownership and profit-sharing rights as Forensic Times scales.


Responsibilities

  • Provide strategic direction and governance oversight
  • Leverage your network to open media, legal, or industry partnerships
  • Advise on editorial, commercial, and growth strategy
  • Attend quarterly board meetings (virtual/in-person)
  • Support fundraising, brand positioning, and business development
  • Represent Forensic Times at relevant professional events, panels, and networks
  • Actively participate in conferences, expos, summits, and industry events as a Forensic Times Board representative (travel and event-specific costs discussed case by case)
  • Serve as a trusted voice and ambassador for the platform within your professional community

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 β€” 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 β€” that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
