The firm employs over 100 people and manages assets totalling EUR 6 billion.

The role

As a Paralegal at Areim, you will support the Legal & Regulatory team as well as the wider business. Your role will combine recurring processes with ad hoc assignments, with a focus on creating structure, coordinating activities and ensuring high-quality documentation and processes.

For the right candidate, there will be opportunities to gradually take greater ownership of different areas based on experience, strengths and interests.

Key responsibilities and tasks include:

• Administering contract management and other governance systems.
• Providing KYC and AML-related support and related administration, including collecting, reviewing and maintaining corporate and ownership documentation and coordinating responses to external KYC requests.
• Supporting ongoing and periodic updates of corporate documentation, governance documents, powers of attorney, information brochures and the company’s regulatory business plan.
• Maintaining corporate records and supporting company administration, including coordinating board and shareholder documentation where relevant.
• Supporting regulatory administration and recurring reporting processes, including documentation relating to Areim’s regulated activities and control functions.
• Coordinating and administering Investment Committee meetings, including minute-taking.
• Supporting the planning and administration of Board meetings.
• Maintaining and developing Legal & Regulatory templates, checklists, process descriptions and practical guidance for the wider business.
• Supporting the business with simpler legal matters.

Your profile

We are looking for someone who is structured, service-minded and detail-oriented, with the ability to take responsibility and manage several tasks in parallel. You are pragmatic, collaborative and communicative, and enjoy working both independently and together with different stakeholders across the organisation.

Qualifications and suitable background
