We’re working with a high-growth international business to appoint an experienced Company Secretary to take ownership of its corporate governance and company secretarial function. Reporting directly to the General Counsel, this is a senior and highly visible role partnering closely with the Board, shareholders and senior leadership across a complex, multinational organisation.
The role will lead all Board and committee governance requirements, while overseeing company secretarial matters across a growing group of c.70 legal entities in 10 + countries. You’ll be responsible for ensuring robust governance frameworks and processes are in place, advising directors and senior stakeholders, managing statutory and regulatory requirements, and overseeing external company secretarial service providers. There will also be plenty of opportunity to continue developing and improving the existing governance infrastructure as the business grows.
We’re looking for an experienced Company Secretary who has operated within a complex, multinational environment and is comfortable managing multiple senior stakeholders across different functions and geographies. You’ll need excellent governance knowledge, strong organisational skills and the credibility to act as a trusted adviser to the Board and leadership team.
Experience within energy or a high-growth environment would be useful but isn’t essential.
The role is based in London with hybrid working - please get in touch if you’d like to hear more.
