Company Secretarial Assistant role in a growing Accountancy Firm
Your new company
I have partnered with a leading firm, where an opportunity has arisen for a Company Secretarial Assistant to join their award-winning Accounting, Tax, and Corporate Finance team.
This firm has always focused on team culture, driven by the belief that the business is all about the people. With offices in multiple locations, and a team of nearly 275, they aim to make a positive impact. Their continued growth journey means they are always on the lookout for great talent. They pride themselves on doing things a little differently, being business enthusiasts who happen to be accountants. They strive for the best, wanting their clients and people to see the value in their operations and to make a real difference.
Your new role
The role involves preparing, reviewing, and submitting various Companies House filings, ensuring all client statutory deadlines are met, and maintaining statutory records using specific systems. Responsibilities include preparing written resolutions and minutes, forming companies, and assisting with document preparation. The role also involves providing board support, managing board meeting logistics, and responding to client and colleague queries. General duties include managing client expectations, ensuring confidentiality, maintaining timesheets, collaborating with team members, and improving internal processes. Key skills required are deadline management, initiative, attention to detail, strong communication, and organisational abilities.
What you'll need to succeed
You should possess commercial awareness and an understanding of the business environment. Previous experience within a Company Secretarial Team is essential. You need to be proficient in using Inform Direct and/or Diligent Entities. Ideally, you should have experience in a practice environment. The ability to follow and transcribe meetings is important, with previous minute-taking experience being desirable but not essential. Additionally, you should be IT literate and committed to continuous learning and development.
What you'll get in return
This role offers an exciting opportunity to enhance your skills within a close-knit and dedicated team of company secretarial professionals. You will have the chance to grow your career alongside their expected growth, making it an exciting environment to contribute to. Offering support to those looking to get CGI qualified, they are truly dedicated to their employees development.
They can offer very hybrid working, including the possibility to be remote with monthly office visits and a market rate remuneration.
