Company Secretary
The Company Secretary will be responsible for ensuring that the company complies with relevant legislation and regulations, and for maintaining good corporate governance.

The ideal candidate will have a strong understanding of corporate law and governance, excellent organisational and communication skills, and the ability to work effectively under pressure. A professional qualification in Company Secretarial practice is essential. Experience in a similar role within the financial services sector is highly desirable.
