Responsibilities would include:

·               Providing governance, statutory compliance and company secretarial support within the regulated & insurance entities of the organisation.

·               Supporting with the preparation of agenda, papers & minutes for the Board and Committees, ensuring all provided in a timely manner and to a high standard. Accurate allocation of subsequent actions, working closely with executives to ensure actions are delivered as set.
