Sri Lankan Society: Treasurer

Hello, my name is Karthig Thillaivasan. Having been Marketing director for the society over the last year, I have not only attended events at Sri Lankan Society, but have also gained insights and put effort into promoting these events, organisation, planning and hard work. I have a real passion for the society and would love to be part of the committee once again to contribute to its success and create maximum value and lasting memories for all its members. As Treasurer, I plan to budget appropriately to continue the success of our small scale and larger clubbing events. Furthermore, I plan to organise and fund more social events at venues such as Flight Club, Simmons Bar and Bounce. I also wish to raise awareness of our rich culture around UCL, hosting Sri Lankan games nights, food and music festivals and charity events. I also aim to facilitate new partnerships with restaurants, event organisers and educational sponsors to increase members’ access to discounted tickets and food, and provide careers support. Beyond this, I have the specific experience to effectively manage the finances of the society. This includes: working in excel as part of my university degree projects, networking and hosting talks in Surgical Society and iNUGSC. I have also developed and run charity events at school; and organised a variety showcase of Music, Dance, Comedy and Magic, where I managed sponsorships and ticket sales of over £3,000.

Hello fellow people from the Sri Lankan Society, I am Ajay and I will be running for treasurer for this amazing society ;)

Personally, I believe I am up to the job with my ability to work alongside budgets and having prior experience with numbers and Excel. As for someone who is running as treasurer, I think it's important for them to have the upmost maturity and professionalism when going into that role and you can count on me to fulfil that role.

Thank you for reading my manifesto, and I will greatly appreciate it if you vote for me.
