We're seeking new trustees
We're seeking new trustees, whether or not you’ve any trustee experience, to support our well established and respected charity for unpaid carers.
What difference will you make?
As part of our Board you will support and shape our work and strategic direction, as well as help us achieve our purpose to support unpaid carers. As a trustee, you will have a real opportunity to offer your unique skill set to help the strategic progression of the charity.
What are we looking for?
We would welcome applicants with skills and experience of all types, especially with leadership or management experience.
- Potential trustees will be good communicators, with a commitment to what Carers and Communities delivers and be willing to be engaged in the overarching direction and strategy.
- It is not necessary to have previous trustee or board committee experience as training and induction will be provided. This position would therefore suit an individual taking their first steps.
- We welcome applications from all ages and backgrounds. We are actively looking to further diversify our board to help us represent all the communities of Worcestershire. If you think you can help us to achieve this we would very much like to hear from you. Everyone’s input will be valued and support will be available to a new trustee.
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.

Meetings are generally held at the office in Worcester. Where necessary trustees can attend via Teams.
We look forward to hearing from you.
