My client is a privately owned financial services firm with entities located across multiple jurisdictions looking to bring a senior governance professional to oversee their entire company secretarial department. They are looking for a seasoned governance/company secretary who can provide support to the board, help shape the governance structure of the business as it continues to grow, provide management to established company secretary's for various entities and provide insight into how the department should be run and structured. They would ideally want someone from a similar regulated entity who is used to working across a number of jurisdictions and multiple entities. It would be their preference for someone to come from private rather than listed background. They are a great business who we have worked with for years and have seen a lot of growth in recent times. They offer fabulous flexibility and a great culture. The role is newly created and will offer someone the chance to shape the function. They want to move quickly so please contact me ASAP to discuss or submit your CV for consideration. Whilst someone can be based anywhere in the UK you would need to be able to travel to their offices when needed. Sponsorship cannot be provided so you must be eligible to work in the UK to be considered.
