South West RFCC 

South West RFCC covers Cornwall, Devon and the Isles of Scilly.

We’re committed to reducing flood risk in our area, making communities more resilient and adapting to the challenges of a changing climate. We can’t do this without our RFCC members. By joining our committee, you can help us achieve these goals.

We’re looking for candidates who:

• have an active interest in flood and coastal risk management
• can represent the interests of communities across our region
• come from a diverse range of backgrounds
• are impartial and not representatives of any particular organisation
• have a real enthusiasm and commitment to your local community

You don’t have to be a technical expert or have specific qualifications for most roles. It’s your enthusiasm and commitment to your local community that is most important.

Our vacancies and how to apply

We have 2 vacancies for general independent members. It would be helpful if you have knowledge or experience of inland flooding and/or agriculture, farming and land management. These roles are available right now.

You can apply using our simple online application form. Explain why you’re interested in being an independent RFCC member and what you think you would bring to the role. Outline your relevant skills and experience. You should also mention any specific qualifications or experience that relate to the role specialism.

The closing date to apply is 15 December 2024.
