Having immensely enjoyed my role as Client Relations Executive, the prospect of being Vice President for the FinTech society excites me greatly. Through this role, I have built up a strong rapport with founders of exciting start ups, such as Greenpixie and Pluto Invest.

As Vice President, I hope to build on these relationships further and incorporate their work in our society's events, making it a hub for internship opportunities in the FinTech space. With exclusive events and panel talks lined up, I am confident these partnerships could jumpstart careers in FinTech for our membership base.

Not only do I want our members to have access to these exciting opportunities but also, I plan on providing our members with resources to learn more about FinTech. For example, the introduction of mentorship schemes and seminar-style workshops, led by professionals from the FinTech sector.

Through these events, members will be able to pick up insider knowledge about FinTech specific issues and network with highly qualified leaders in the sector. With FinTech being seen as quite a technical and complex sector, a lack of insider knowledge can often act as a barrier to entry. Through providing our members with the relevant knowledge and industry-specific expertise, I hope to make these opportunities accessible to all of our talented and highly motivated members.

I look forward to the opportunity of building on our society's success this year and serving as Vice President.
