Shirom Aggarwal

Hi everyone, I’m Shirom and I’m a first-year Economics student.

Having been a first-year representative for the society over the last year, I have not only engaged with all the events Indian Society has hosted but have also gained valuable insight into the organisation, planning and hard work behind it all. I have a real passion for the society and would love to be part of the committee to contribute to its success and create maximum value and lasting memories for all its members.

As Treasurer, I will:

• budget appropriately to continue the success of our flagship events: Dhamaal and Jashn
• organise and fund more social events at venues such as Simmons Bar, Flight Club and Bounce
• introduce a stronger cultural focus within the society, hosting Indian games nights, food and music festivals and charity events
• 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 a J.P.Morgan work experience; networking and hosting talks from the likes of Touker Suleyman, Theo Paphitis and Lord Mervyn King having founded a society at school; and organising a TEDx event where I managed sponsorships and ticket sales of £5,000+.
