International Relations Society: Treasurer

Hello!! I’m Jasrene, a second-year BSc Economics student, and I am running for the position of Treasurer for the International Relations Society?

I am looking forward to contributing to the society by:

1. Collaborating with think tanks and other societies to organise events that would allow members to pursue their passion in international relations (without having to worry about the cost of doing so!)

2. Ensuring fiscal prudence by keeping track of all invoices and making sure that all funds are used efficientl

3. Working closely with other committee members to plan social events that would allow members to bond and forge stronger relationships with like-minded peers

I am confident in executing my role as a treasurer as I have experience in managing funds and logistics for large-scale leadership and Model United Nations events. I have also planned fundraising events and sought sponsorships on behalf of various non-governmental organisations. This helps to ensure that they have sufficient funding to organise various programmes that will benefit the community. Likewise, I hope to finance UCL IR society well and ensure the smooth implementation of all events organised by the society. 

Thank you for reading and I hope that you will provide me with the opportunity to serve you!

My name is Chiara and I’m a first year geography student. I’m running for Treasurer because I want to maximise sponsorship opportunities and carefully manage the Society’s funds, as these are essential in financing an ambitious and fun year’s programme for all our members!

Some of my aims are:

• Revitalising fee structure to ensure that membership provides excellent value for money which would encourage more members and funds leading to more exciting and dynamic events. 
• More collaboration with other societies and universities on events. This allows the financial responsibility to be shared, resulting in greater diversity in and a more extensive programme of these. 
• Sourcing sponsorship opportunities for society events.
• Working with businesses and organisations to try and obtain discounts and freebies for our members. 

In the past I have secured sponsorship funding from businesses for a charity project and have managed the accounts for a school student run café. I was responsible for managing and purchasing the stock and monitoring the cash and floats. As a first year rep for both the International Relations Society and Geography Society, I have had a taste of committee responsibility so understand the duties and commitment. 

With this experience, I will make sure members get the most from International Relations this year and that we have the finance to provide exciting events for everyone! Thanks for voting :))

Hey everyone! I am a 2nd Year Politics and International Relations student who is running for treasurer. As treasurer for next year, I would carry out more efficient budgeting for activities. I am extremely enthusiastic about what our society can become if our finances were boosted, exploring the possibility of more social events, speaker events, etc! One of my goals is also to secure sponsorships so that we have more flexibility in coming up with events that we can all enjoy. 

Vote me for Treasurer today! :)
