This would be a full-time staff position based in London.

Responsible for arranging board and shareholder meetings, including preparing notices, board materials, and minutes for both scheduled and ad hoc meetings related to material decisions such as reorganizations, dividend payments, restructurings, and corporate changes. 
 

Key tasks include organizing and distributing agendas and supporting documents for meetings, responding to queries from directors, taking minutes, drafting resolutions, lodging required forms with regulatory authorities, and maintaining statutory books and company records for each entity.
 

Manage correspondence, compile information, write reports, ensure decisions are communicated to relevant stakeholders, and provide advice on the legal, governance, accounting, and tax implications of proposed decisions. 
 

Monitor changes in relevant legislation and regulations, taking appropriate action when necessary, and oversee external advisors and service providers.
