I’m Jamie. I’ve been at Imperial for 7 years, now I’m running for DPFS.

The DPFS is responsible for the bars, shops and other commercial services run by the union, as well as student development, marketing, sponsorship and union services.

I have a vast amount of relevant experience including:

• Holding financially responsible positions with multiple societies over five years and overseeing over £37,000 of club expenditure

• Sitting on Union Council and the Arts Imperial Board

• Being involved with running over 200 shows/events at imperial, with societies, the bar, and the Events-and-Conferences team

• Being at Imperial as an Undergrad, Postgrad, and PhD student and being involved with over 30 societies has allowed me to see Imperial from many different perspectives

But what am I going to *do*?

IMPROVE THE BARS

• Pre-order food from FiveSixEight online

• Faster service on Wednesday and Friday nights

  • “Express lane” with bottle bar and pre-poured pints

  • Jägerbombs on tap.

• Refurbish Metric and improve FiveSixEight’s doors

• Review bar staff pay and conditions

• Create an entertainments committee

• More Live Music

​

REDUCE CLUB ADMIN BURDEN

• Improve eActivities’ usability

• Make club mailing lists better

• Review financial authorisation levels (one size doesn’t fit all)

• Improve the room booking system

• Fix the printing system

OTHER MISCELLANEOUS POLICIES

• Continue the Union’s current work of increasing its external income

• Introduce a better e-voting system for clubs

• Decide fair budgeting rules *before* clubs submit their budgets.

• Improve the records of the Union’s historic £200k collection of tankards.
