Company Secretary - Volunteer

Overview

Lively Minds has developed and implemented a unique system to get pre school children in rural Africa school ready. Given rapid expansion in new Africa countries we are looking for an experienced Company Secretary to support the governance of the Board.

Your input will ensure that we bring our governance up to the highest standards and ensure that the Chair, Trustees and appropriate staff are fully aligned.

The person should have at least 3 years of experience, an eye for detail and a personality that gets on well with different backgrounds and ages. An affinity towards international development and Africa would be helpful but not essential.

The Company secretary will be responsible for organising the 4 Board meetings a year and to assist where possible with the organisation of our remuneration and finance and audit committee. The role will ensure all related documents are provided and appropriate minutes taken.

We are keen to work with someone who has the depth of experience to ensure that all our charity policies are fit for purpose and that we are following the Charity Commission guidelines.
