Candidates

Akhilesh Sivananthan

I am eager to take on a key role in the Engineering Society, building on my past experience as Projects Executive to drive impactful initiatives and support the committee in delivering exceptional events. Having successfully organized and managed large-scale projects (e.g. Engineering Ball 2024, London 2050, BPuzzled Hackathon), I am prepared to take on greater responsibilities, ensuring our society remains one of the best on campus.
My leadership roles in the Energy Society have equipped me with strong networking and sponsorship acquisition skills, allowing me to liaise effectively with large organizations to secure funding and support. I understand the importance of fostering corporate relationships and ensuring long-term partnerships that benefit our members.
Additionally, my time on the UCL Racing team has strengthened my teamwork, communication, and problem-solving abilities. Working under pressure and adapting quickly to challenges has prepared me to take on a leadership role that requires both strategic planning and hands-on execution.
In any position, I will be committed to mentoring new committee members, ensuring smooth collaboration across teams, and helping deliver innovative events and projects. My goal is to elevate the society’s impact, strengthen industry connections, and create an engaging environment for all members.
I am excited about the opportunity to contribute my skills and experience to continue the society’s success and bring fresh ideas to the team.

Raahym Rehan

I am Raahym Rehan, and I am running for the position of Engineering Projects Executive in the Engineering Society. I am passionate about transforming innovative ideas into successful engineering projects, and I believe my experience uniquely qualifies me for this role. My participation in multiple hackathons and technology-driven competitions has provided me with a solid understanding of teamwork, resource management, and the challenges of executing complex projects under pressure. In addition, my leadership roles in other societies have honed my ability to coordinate events that foster technical engagement and creative problem-solving.

In this role I aim to create an environment that nurtures groundbreaking engineering projects by organizing interdisciplinary competitions, facilitating collaborations with industry partners, and streamlining internal project management processes. I want to support and mentor society members so they can bring their ideas to life while ensuring efficient execution and lasting impact. I am driven by continuous learning and eager to help build a community where technical innovation thrives. I look forward to the opportunity to lead our society’s engineering projects and contribute to a future defined by technical excellence and collaborative success.
