Job Description:

An exciting contract opportunity has arisen within a highly regarded governance team of this global asset manager. This role is to be offered as a 14month contract on a full time basis (maternity cover with allowance for a handover at either end). This is a senior hire and you'll ideally have experience with investment fund structures with exposure to the asset management sector, although due consideration will still be given to those with experience gained outside of this sector.

You will typically enjoy assuming responsibility for delivering high-quality work with minimal supervision and have the ability to work in a fast-paced, collaborative and challenging environment. Embedded in the heart of the business, you will have the opportunity to work closely with commercial colleagues by providing day-to-day company secretarial support to entities across Europe (including managing outsourced service providers, board support, annual compliance requirements, shareholder governance structures, Diligent Entities maintenance, the establishment of new entities / structures, D&O insurance, liquidations, etc.) You will also provide advice, support and guidance for the management of entities involved in transaction activity (including portfolio company acquisitions, joint ventures, divestments, refinancing and new fund establishments).

This is a role that will really appeal to someone who is seeking fantastic exposure and the opportunity to be heavily involved in a wide range of corporate transaction activity.

A very competitive salary and remuneration package is on offer and the company have a hybrid working policy of three days in the office, two from home. This might fluctuate around particular busy periods of transactional activity. Please do get in touch if this is something you'd like to explore further.
