Hi everyone,

I’m Sophie and would love to be your new Secretary!

I have gained so much from SurgSoc during my preclinical years, from attending tutorials and fantastic conferences to being involved in running webinars for the society.

As Secretary, I will ensure the smooth running our society by streamlining communication between subcommittees, student members and all of our external contacts. I want meetings, events and marketing to be as stress-free as possible, and will ensure this is the case through careful planning and conversation with the committee.

In simple, I hope to make all of our lives that little bit easier.

Through my roles of being on the Ophthalmology subcommittee and being an Academic Rep, I feel I have the vital organisational and communication skills required for this role.

If I were to gain this role, I would:

  • Maintain the SurgSoc weekly bulletin, updating us with new opportunities every week, as well as reminding us of any SurgSoc events coming up
  • Make a Google Forms template to be added to the LinkTree on our Instagram, to streamline requests for event promotion on our bulletin and Instagram
  • Create a central SurgSoc calendar which people can subscribe to and add to their personal calendars, so that it will be easier than ever for our members to fit our events into their busy schedules.
  • Always be happy to be a spare pair of hands and a communicator between subcommittees in the society

I look forward to the opportunity. Thank you!
