Introduction

Trustee Role – The Ella Rowcroft Endowment Trust

The Ella Rowcroft Endowment Trust was established to create a long-term permanent endowment for Rowcroft Hospice so that it can continue to deliver the highest possible standard of care to more patients, and their families, living with life-limited illnesses in South Devon, for generations to come. The Endowment Trust is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) sitting alongside Rowcroft Hospice.

We are looking for a new trustee to join this exciting Trust.

The ideal candidates will be highly successful business leaders/entrepreneurs who have strong networks within the Ultra High Net Worth community.

We are looking for dynamic, enthusiastic and motivated professionals.

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.
