I want to stand for Sponsorship Director because of how much I’ve genuinely loved all the events Punjabi Society hosted this year.

Lohri Ball especially stood out to me. The turnout was insane, and everything felt so professional and well put together. Seeing an event on that scale made me realise how much work goes on behind the scenes to make events like that happen and a huge part of that has to be funding and sponsorship.

That’s what drew me to the role. Securing sponsorships isn’t easy, and it comes with real responsibility because you’re representing the society while building relationships with businesses that directly contribute to its growth but I’m confident I can handle that.

I’m very organised, reliable and committed in how I approach tasks. I would take a structured approach to researching potential sponsors, keeping records of outreach, and working together with the marketing directors to ensure we deliver our end of the deal. I’d also want to try to build partnerships that aren’t just one off deals but something that can benefit the society long-term.
