Trustee, THE NATIONAL FLOOD FORUM
Join Our Board – Trustee
Location: In person and remotely
Commitment: ~4 Board meetings/year, plus ad hoc input
Expenses: Reasonable travel expenses reimbursed.
Deadline: 7th August 2026.
The National Flood Forum (NFF) supports and empowers people and communities at risk of flooding and helps those who flood to recover from the material and emotional trauma that flooding causes. With 24 years on the ground experience, we are the only national charity dedicated to supporting flood risk communities.
At the NFF, we give emotional and practical help and create the right package of support for the long-term. Flooding can be a devastating experience with lasting economic, practical, and emotional consequences and for many people the recovery process is as traumatic, or even more stressful, than the flood itself.
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.
