Women in SET: Event Organiser

Hi everyone! I'm Rachel. As Events Organiser, I would love to build on the society’s existing strengths and create more opportunities for members to explore, connect and grow.

  • Broader career exposure: Organise more insight days and company visits across science, engineering and technology, giving members the opportunity to explore career paths beyond what they may already be familiar with.

  • Practical skills development: Continue and expand consulting workshops with student-led consulting groups, helping members develop practical problem-solving, teamwork and presentation skills. Where possible, I would also like to create exclusive opportunities, such as fast-tracked interviews for outstanding participants.

  • Research & career inspiration: Organise panels featuring women across academia, industry and research, giving members a chance to hear different career journeys and gain a broader perspective on the opportunities available to them.

I also have previous experience in event planning and leadership, which has helped me develop my organisation, communication and teamwork skills. Ultimately, I want to help make the society a place where members can discover new opportunities, build practical skills and feel supported throughout their university journey.
