Company Secretary & Entity Manager

Overview

This role is central to the organization’s global expansion. You will establish new entities in new markets and ensure existing entities remain in good standing.

You will lead end-to-end delivery, partnering with a small cross-functional team spanning legal, finance, and operations. From initial scoping through launch, you will project-manage each stage, align stakeholders (including senior leadership), and ensure a clean handover to the operational team once an entity is live.

Responsibilities

• Manage the global entity lifecycle:
  • Own entity setup and maintenance across multiple markets.
  • Lead delivery from market scoping through corporate governance, statutory compliance, and any restructuring where needed.
  • Direct cross-functional planning and execution across legal, finance, and operations.
• Engage senior stakeholders:
  • Provide clear progress reporting to leadership (including the CEO).
  • Surface risks early and drive decisions to keep projects moving.
• Navigate governance and regulatory requirements:
  • Manage incorporation, licensing, notarisation, certification, legalisation, employer registrations, licence renewals, statutory filings, and local regulatory obligations.
  • Identify efficient approaches to meet timelines during market scale-up.
• Keep entities compliant and in good standing:
  • Maintain corporate records and manage renewals, registrations, filings, director/shareholder changes, board and shareholder resolutions, POAs, UBO updates, and registered office requirements.
  • Ensure smooth transitions to business-as-usual.
• Broaden impact with corporate legal matters:
  • Support vendor and corporate legal work, including NDAs, vendor agreements, banking documentation, lease agreements, procurement reviews, contract templates, legal playbooks, and legal operations improvements.

Requirements

• Experience: 4+ years of hands-on experience in entity management, company secretarial, or corporate legal work.
  • Ideally experience with an EOR or payroll provider, a corporate service provider, or a multinational group.
• Multi-jurisdiction entity experience: Entities set up and maintained across several jurisdictions (not just one market).
• Execution experience: Evidence that you have completed filings, incorporations, and registrations yourself.
• Corporate governance: Experience drafting resolutions and maintaining statutory records.
• Corporate document formalities: Familiarity with notarisation, certification, and legalisation of corporate documents.
• Project management: Strong ability to manage multiple entities, providers, and deadlines simultaneously.
• Education: A law degree or equivalent legal qualification is strongly preferred.
• Language: Fluent in English.
