Head of Company Secretarial

My professional services client is seeking a Head of Company Secretarial to join their dynamic corporate services environment. This is a senior-level role requiring strong technical expertise, and the ability to manage a client portfolio independently from the outset. The successful candidate will have experience using Diligent Entities and a solid understanding of company law and governance. Excellent communication skills are essential, as you will liaise with clients, senior stakeholders, and internal teams while supporting the development of colleagues and contributing to a high-performing governance function.

Key Responsibilities

Manage a portfolio of clients while supporting company secretarial and governance activities, including incorporations, board and shareholder meetings, statutory record maintenance, and HMRC Stamp Duty matters. Lead and support complex corporate reorganisations such as demergers, share transfers, buybacks, and capital restructures. Assist with workflow management, training junior staff, and working closely with senior management. Ensure compliance with evolving legal and regulatory requirements while delivering multiple projects to tight deadlines.

Hybrid Working

This role would be looking at 3 days per week in the office; 2 days from home. There could also be some flexibility here.

Requirements

If you have strong professional services experience and keen to take on a lead role, then this could definitely be worth a look!
