Job description

Corporate Paralegal, City Storage Systems - London

London

Who we are

At City Storage Systems, we're building Infrastructure for Better Food. We help restaurateurs around the world succeed in online food delivery. Our goal is to make food more affordable, higher quality and convenient for everyone. We're changing the game for restaurateurs, whether they’re entrepreneurs opening their first restaurant all the way through to your favorite global quick-service restaurant chains.

What you’ll do

• UK and EMEA CoSec work: filing registrations and confirmation statements in the UK. Working with local counsel to manage registrations, annual filings, capital registrations, KYC requirements, or similar across EMEA.
• Entity management: draft basic corporate documentation/resolutions for the formation, maintenance, and dissolution of EMEA entities and keep them in good standing.
• Corporate governance and support: managing a signing authority matrix, managing corporate governance document database, maintaining legal entity management software and entity org charts (hCue), and arranging execution of contracts and legalization of documents. Managing entity governance changes, such as a change of directors or a change of registered addresses.
• Legal operations: owning processes for document routing from inception through to execution and database storage.
• Liaise internally: with other departments and global legal teams to provide legal support as necessary.

Coordination with outside counsel and other professional service providers.

What we’re looking for

• Academically, we are looking for someone with a law degree or other legal qualification, or who is an experienced corporate company secretary. However, a love of being compulsively organized is more vital.
• Ideally, you have at least 2 years of paralegal or company secretarial experience in private practice and/or a similar in-house role providing corporate governance and company secretarial support.
• Self-starter with the ability to multitask and problem-solve.
• Exceptional organizational skills, with a keen eye for detail.
• Demand for online food delivery is growing really fast! In the last 5 years, just in the US, the overall market has expanded 10X from $10B to $100B, and could expand to $500bn- $1T by 2030.
• Changing the restaurant industry: You’ll be part of a team that helps restaurants succeed in online food delivery.
• Collaborative environment: You will receive support and guidance from experienced colleagues and managers, helping you to learn, grow and achieve your goals, and you’ll work closely with other teams to ensure our customer’s success.

What else you need to know

This role is based in our London office. As a company driven by innovation and continuous change, close collaboration is essential. We’re constantly reimagining our industry, creating new products, and refining our processes, and we do our best work together. That’s why all of our office-based teams work onsite, five days a week.
