Finance: President

Hey everyone, I’m Roger. I’m running for President of FinSoc because I want the society to feel more active and more social for everyone, whether you’re here to learn about finance, meet people, or go for Spring Weeks and internships.

FinSoc has a lot of potential, the only thing it's missing is consistency. The best societies stay active across the whole year and that is my goal: to make FinSoc the place you turn up to regularly and meet great people, always having learnt something.

If elected, I will:

Make FinSoc consistent

  • Clear monthly plan published early so you can see what’s coming and pick what suits you
  • Regular weekly/fortnightly events that are easy to drop into

Work closer with sponsors and firms

  • More interactive speaker and networking nights
  • Work with our sponsors and contacts (e.g. Rothschild, Houlihan Lokey, and others) to bring more Q&As and workshops

Make FinSoc more social

  • More regular socials (casual meet-ups, mixers, post-event drinks)
  • One big formal each year (FinSoc Ball / Formal Dinner)
  • Better collabs with other societies to bring everyone together

Big highlight events

  • Examples: Office visits/insight trips, Deal/Markets Sprint with prizes

Having been at pretty much every FinSoc event this year, I know what works and what doesn’t. If elected, I’ll make sure FinSoc runs regularly across the year, with a better social side and a stronger sense of community.

Thank you for taking the time to read my manifesto, and I hope to earn your vote!
