How it Works
We have two intakes annually, where applications are sorted, depending on our first-round criteria. If you get past the first round, you will be contacted via email. Round two will be the interview stage. Where you’ll be interviewed by the LBS BFP team. Again you’ll be contacted via email if you make it to the next round. The last round would consist of an interview with the firm themselves.
What to Expect
Due to large volumes of applications, we cannot get back to everyone who applies. If you do not receive an email within 3 weeks post-round, then you’ve not made it to the next stage. The LBS BFP team will send a brief, discussing the role, what the firm is ideally looking for, as well as the firm itself. This is to ensure you have invested interested in the company & position before an interview takes place. If all goes post-interview, an agreement is signed by both parties. Outlining expectations from both fellow & firm.
Questions
If you have any questions or would like more information before applying to LBS Board Fellow Programme. Please take a look at our FAQ before you get in touch. Kindly remember that LBS BFP is a volunteer-run service and it may take 3 to 5 days for us to get back to you with your queries. As team members are either studying full-time or have full-time careers.
Testimonials
My time as a LBS Board Fellow with Link to Change has been a wonderfully rewarding experience. I’ve much to take away from this opportunity & look forward to continuing this kind of work.

It’s been a great journey from LBS BFP to my current governing board role at Thomas Academy. From my point of view, it’s been, & still is a satisfying collaboration for both parties.
