This is an outstanding opportunity for a company secretarial professional who is looking to broaden their experience, gain exposure to senior stakeholders and play a meaningful role within a dynamic and evolving business. Working closely with the General Counsel, you will be given genuine responsibility and the opportunity to contribute to a wide range of governance initiatives and strategic projects.

Key responsibilities will include:
• Assisting with the preparation and coordination of Board and Committee meetings
