Sports Business Society: Treasurer

Esteemed members of the UCL Sports Business Society,

I am honoured to announce my candidacy for Treasurer and I humbly request your support in continuing our journey towards excellence.

As the Co-Founder, current Treasurer and former Welfare Officer of the society, I had a key role in launching the founding of the society with the welcome fair, where we recruited the society’s first members and social events, where we had a great time at both Bounce and TOCA. We have also formed a strong committee of 8 where we organised talks with industry professionals including cycling moguls about the cycling industry and a former rugby player-turned-TMT investment banker who was a key facilitator in the £4.25 billion Chelsea takeover.

As your Treasurer, I pledge to work assiduously towards the society's growth and expanding network. I plan to broaden the society's outreach through consolidating the network of professionals we have connected with and I plan to leverage the society's budget to support its social and professional endeavours, including hosting catered venues for networking events and talks and organising society socials.

I hope to propel the UCL Sports Business Society to further success and provide the best possible experience for our members.

Thank you for believing in me and my vision.

When scrolling through all the societies at UCL at the start of the academic year, this was the one that intrigued me the most. It  combines my biggest interest, sport, and the business/management/financial side of it, which correlates with my university course. I am currently a member of this society, and I was offered the opportunity at the societies fair to become a committee member, but I backed out in fear that I had no experience. This year is different, and I would very much like to be involved in this aspect of the club. I have attended many of the events the society has had this year, and have an amicable relationship with many involved. I believe that the best way for myself to get involved next year is through the role of treasurer, which given my love for controlling budgets and planning the best way to spend it, makes most sense. However, even though I am applying for the role of treasurer, I would be open to any position on the committee of this society, as it means a lot to me. This comes as I plan for a future job specifically in this industry, and there is no topic that excites me more. Thanks for your consideration.
