Election post
As a current Executive for the Business Division, I’ve been able to deeply understand what makes this division thrive and where there is room to scale. Working closely on a variety of events – from the successful co-ordination and execution of the 2025 UK Investment Competition to novel collaborations with other student societies – has strengthened my core organisational and management skills required to successfully act as Business Director. Next year, I will implement a dual-focus approach aimed at increasing accessibility of business-related roles and careers to a wider range of students.
Traditional ‘Core’ Offering
- Solidify Business Division’s core events, including high-profile networking events and fireside chats. This will include a strengthened focus on buy-side opportunities (HF, VC etc).
- Double down on hands-on exposure through workshops and case competitions in collaboration with other student societies.
Alternative Offering
- Secure collaborations with a wide range of industries to increase accessibility to business-related career paths outside of traditional finance. I have already started researching collaborations with leading wine houses, focusing on fine wine as an alternative investment.
- Host industry-agnostic technical workshops to bridge the gap between creative interests and corporate skills in a practical manner.
Thank you for your time and consideration; I look forward to continuing this division’s legacy as Business Director and working with you all!
