Leo Bessonovs

Yacht: Junior Treasurer

Ahoj my comrade sailors!

My name is Leo,I am an undergraduate physicist with passions in atmospheric,oceanic,and geophysics.I have been a sailor from childhood,crossing the Mediterranean,Adriatic and Ionian seas,the English channel,the Azores and Canaries,and have recently achieved my day skippers license in the unforgiving winter Solent.

I am applying for treasurer -a vital role to ensure our club has the assets needed for a smooth operation,be it planning cruises,socials,courses,and whatever else we require for a smooth sail.With an inescapable and bleak future in finance(irrespective of my passions),I have the skills necessary for this role:

I can use excel

That is the end of the list,thank you.

To add to that,I have an avid background in programming,and thus a logical and structured approach to record keeping and data management.I can work very well with numbers and can easily count past 10 if needed,as shown by my A*’s in maths and further maths -not much of a brag for an ICL student I know :’(

I am a very social and approachable individual,always willing to help and provide if the union allows it;I can collaborate well with the committee to distribute our assets and work on ways to broaden the horizons for this club.

As treasurer/pirate,I can promise you financial peace of mind(I am not responsible if something goes wrong),and will ensure the flow of money in and out of the club is smooth,well documented,and accounted for.

See you in the committee next year!
