CV Advice - Limited Finance Experience

Hello,

As per the WSO CV template, my CV has 4 sections, education, work experience, leadership, and additional information. 

I have recently started a market analyst role, aligned with my university's finance society where I produce weekly reports on the main asset classes (equity, rates, fx, alternate assets etc) and I was wondering where the best place to put this in my CV is.

Could I add another section between education and work experience called finance experience/relevant experience? Id like to highlight the role, as my only work experience is within engineering and that's also what I'm studying, so I'm thinking its pretty crucial to demonstrate an interest in finance on my CV.

Another option I'm considering is renaming leadership to extracurricular/other experience and placing it in there.

Any guidance is appreciated.
