Election post
Hi! I’m Shiv, and I’m running to be President of the UCL Consulting Society! As First-Year Rep for Events, I helped organise the Consulting Summit 2025, gaining experience planning major events and working with key stakeholders. Now, I want to take the society further—expanding opportunities, strengthening mentorship, and making it the best place for UCL students to break into consulting. Let’s make it happen together! I have a clear 5-point plan:
1. Stronger Connections with Consulting Firms: launch the UCL Consulting Gala, an event bringing together students, alumni, and recruiters. Introduce firm-sponsored networking evenings and coffee chats to help members build key industry relationships.
2. Up-to-Date Briefing Packs: ensure members have regularly updated briefing packs covering industry trends, firm profiles, and case interview techniques, with briefing sessions to help students use them effectively.
3. Revamped Mentorship Programme: introduce a structured mentorship scheme for all year groups, pairing students with alumni and professionals, offering group mentoring sessions and an online platform for easy communication.
4. More Social & Alumni Engagement: organise networking nights, inviting alumni, to help members build strong connections and gain industry insights.
5. Make the Society UCL’s Leading Career Hub: expand firm partnerships, secure exclusive opportunities, and grow our online presence to ensure the society is the top consulting hub at UCL.
