Job Description

We are seeking an exceptional and experienced Company Secretary & Governance Lead to join the senior leadership team of a Single-Family Office in Jersey.

 

The office manages a diverse portfolio of global assets and operating entities, and this position will play a pivotal role in shaping and overseeing governance, compliance, and secretariat functions across the group. Working closely with the CFO, the successful candidate will lead the development and implementation of governance frameworks, ensure full compliance with multi-jurisdictional regulatory obligations, and coordinate all board and shareholder processes. This will include managing complex entity structures, advising senior stakeholders on governance matters, and liaising with regulators, legal counsel, and auditors across multiple jurisdictions.

 

This opportunity is ideally suited to a qualified governance professional (ICSA/CGI, legal, or equivalent) with significant senior experience in a multi-jurisdictional environment - whether within a family office, corporate group, law firm, or fiduciary services provider. A deep understanding of corporate law, regulatory frameworks, and boardroom best practice is essential, alongside the discretion, integrity, and independent judgment required for a high-trust role.

 

The position offers the chance to work at the heart of a sophisticated international organisation, contributing to strategic projects and supporting the principals’ long-term vision. It represents a rare opportunity for an experienced governance leader to join a lean, high-calibre team with a global outlook.
