Company Secretarial Assistant

FTSE Company | London (4 days in the office) | £55,000 - £65,000 + Bonus + Excellent Benefits A rare opportunity has arisen to join the legal team of a FTSE-listed international business as Senior Company Secretarial Assistant. Following a significant period of transformation, the business is entering an exciting new chapter. Having recently completed a major financing and with strong commercial momentum, the company is in a fantastic position, offering an opportunity to join a lean, high-performing legal function where you'll gain valuable exposure and development opportunities from day one. Reporting directly to the General Counsel, you'll work closely with senior legal leadership, the Company Secretary and a range of stakeholders across the business on a broad range of company secretarial, governance and entity management matters. This is an ideal opportunity for someone earlier in their company secretarial career who is looking to broaden their experience within a listed international business and develop towards an Assistant Company Secretary role over time. The Role Responsibilities will include: · Managing subsidiary governance across an international group, working closely with external corporate secretarial providers. · Maintaining statutory registers and Companies House filings. · Drafting board minutes, resolutions, powers of attorney and other corporate documentation. · Supporting governance administration and ensuring the smooth running of corporate compliance processes. · Assisting with Board and Committee meetings, including coordinating papers and supporting meeting logistics. · Supporting the delivery of the Annual Report and AGM process. · Assisting with UK listed company compliance obligations, including the UK Listing Rules, DTRs, MAR and the UK Corporate Governance Code. · Managing relationships with the company's share registrar and supporting shareholder communications. · Assisting on corporate transactions, restructurings and other strategic projects as they arise. About You We're keen to hear from candidates who: · Have relevant company secretarial experience, either in-house or with a corporate services provider. · Have a solid understanding of core company secretarial and corporate governance principles. · Are organised, detail-oriented and able to manage a varied workload effectively. · Are proactive, eager to learn and keen to continue developing their company secretarial career. · Have strong communication skills and are comfortable building relationships with a range of stakeholders. Experience within a UK listed business would be advantageous but is not essential. Candidates who are CGI qualified, recently qualified or part-qualified are all encouraged to apply. Support for continued professional development will be provided. Why Apply? This is an excellent opportunity to join an established legal team and gain broad exposure across company secretarial and governance activities within a listed multinational business. You'll work closely with experienced senior leaders, develop your technical skillset and gradually build exposure to Board, Committee and PLC-related matters as your experience grows. The business has ambitious growth plans, offers an excellent working culture and provides clear opportunities for progression for someone looking to build a long-term career.
