Senior Corporate Secretarial Executive

Malaysia
Remote
Full-time
Posted Dec 2024

Join Piloto Asia's Corporate Secretarial team to manage a portfolio of Singapore private limited companies. You'll handle full-spectrum corporate secretarial functions, ensure regulatory compliance, and mentor junior team members — all while working remotely from Malaysia.

About the Role

Corporate Secretarial & Compliance (40%)

You will manage full corporate secretarial functions for a portfolio of Singapore private limited companies, including:

  • Company incorporation

  • Annual general meetings (AGMs)

  • Annual returns and statutory filings with ACRA

  • Hands-on navigation of ACRA's online portal

🎯 Your Primary Focus

Ensuring full compliance with ACRA's Corporate Service Provider (CSP) regulatory requirements, including AML/CFT documentation and client acceptance protocols. You'll perform Know Your Customer (KYC), Customer Due Diligence (CDD), Ongoing Due Diligence (ODD), and Enhanced Due Diligence (ECDD) checks for new and existing clients in line with AML/CFT regulations. You'll also support the preparation, maintenance, and implementation of Internal Policies, Procedures & Controls (IPPC) in line with CSP requirements.

Client Portfolio Management (40%)

You'll act as the primary point-of-contact for clients on corporate secretarial matters and provide advisory support on corporate governance, regulatory requirements, and best practices. You will handle complex transactions including:

  • Share Transfers and Allotment of Shares

  • Capital Reduction and Buy-Backs

  • Share Option Plans

  • Strike-off applications

  • Restructuring of Entities

  • Amendments to Company Constitution

Team Leadership & Quality Control (20%)

You'll assist in training, supervising, and mentoring junior corporate secretarial staff — reviewing work for accuracy and quality. You'll also contribute to process improvements and maintain high standards of compliance documentation.

What This Role Offers

  • Rewarding Professional Exposure: Your career growth won't be bounded by organisational structures. As you advance, you'll expand your exposure to new client segments including financial institutions, cross-border jurisdictions, and additional professional qualifications.

  • Extreme Ownership and Autonomy: Take full ownership of your tasks and independently execute client requests once direction has been aligned. You're accountable for your responsibilities and the results you deliver.

  • Impact on Company Strategy: As part of a boutique yet rapidly growing team, have direct involvement in shaping the company's strategic direction with the opportunity to contribute and implement your ideas.

  • ACRA compliance requirements

  • Corporate governance practices

  • Strong command of written and spoken English

  • Ability to draft board resolutions, minutes, and client advisory notes clearly and professionally

Understanding and hands-on experience with Singapore Pte Ltd is compulsory.

Your Mentality

You demonstrate a strong drive for continuous improvement and the ability to propose initiatives that enhance operational efficiency proactively. A high level of attention to detail is essential, as you will guide and support the corporate secretarial team in their day-to-day responsibilities with minimal supervision from Management.
