Hello!

I’m applying for the position of Events Director at the UCL Investment Society as I believe I have the ability to manage operations and bring together people in a collaborative space. The networking skills I’ve acquired through my role as Marketing Director for the School of Management Society make me a good fit for the role because of the experience I’ve gained in organising events, reaching out to speakers and guests, working with a diverse team with creative opinions and having a plan of action if things don’t always go the way I anticipate. Having organised social events as part of the society, I found my passion for working with people, and managing all aspects of any event, be it planning event pitches, budgeting, contacting and convincing speakers, networking woth sponsors, and finally marketing the event.

Additionally, I see myself as a fun and friendly person with a passion for the ideas the Investment Society stands for - Investment Banking, Consulting, Technology, etc. so I believe I’ll be able to have amazing collaboration with the team and have a great time organising events, specially the annual Financial Conference.

Looking forward to being a part of the Investment Society!
