      Oct 2012 - Jun 2014

      Beginning in charge of marketing for Bristol Entrepreneurs two years ago, I was involved in the decision to merge the society with the social enterprise society and helped lead the long creative process of rebranding, renaming and restructuring the new society. In charge of the appearance of the society I created a new website for the society and branded materials for promotion including hoodies, posters, and frequent Facebook event pages.Now promoted to Vice-president I have a strongly executive role in contacting speakership and companies, overseeing promotion, organising locations and refreshments and looking after the society's long term interests.Through participation in this society I have had life changing motivation to create my own enterprise after my degree and developed a lot of skills to help in this process Show less

      Team mentor

      Working with an organisation who helps sixth formers plan, organise and carry out an enterprising project of their choice to help the community. I go into school with the sixth form students each week and lead sessions challenging them to think about what needs improving in their community and what creative way they could have an impact. Then the students must raise money and carry out the project. I oversee the whole process, encouraging the students and directing their progress and leading sessions to help them learn about community impact as well as their own self-development. Show less
