About The Role:
We are looking for a Company Secretary Executive that is excited about the below Mission and Outcomes over the next 6-12 months.
Mission: The Company Secretary Executive based in Malaysia will play a pivotal role in delivering exceptional corporate services to our clients.
Outcomes:
- Facilitating company Incorporations; annual returns; and other corporate changes for Hong Kong companies under Hong Kong Companies Ordinance.
- Ensuring adherence to regulatory requirements and corporate governance standards, protecting our clients' interests.
- Providing exceptional support and guidance to clients, fostering strong relationships and ensuring their satisfaction with our services.
- Collaborating closely with internal teams to align operations with the company's strategic goals, promoting a cohesive and efficient work environment.
Requirements
To do this, you will have a minimum of 1-3 years experience from business-related industries e.g. corporate secretarial; compliance; customer services; or administration and you will most likely be located in Malaysia.
Behavioural fit is also important at Sleek, and we will be looking for candidates that have a proven track record of embodying the below attributes in their recent roles:
Ownership: This shows reliability and helps build trust within the team. We move fast and need to know that everyone will see things through to completion and proactively help to get things back on track when challenges arise. Accountability is really important to us.
Humility: There is so much we don’t know. Humility allows for open-mindedness to feedback and a willingness to learn from others. It paves the way for collaboration and creates a positive work environment. It is a key ingredient of self awareness and emotional intelligence.
Structured Thinking: Our business is complex with many layers (many services, many countries, many cultures). Regardless of whether you’re more analytical or creative in nature, being able to show sound judgement is important to us. It ensures solutions are pragmatic and balance the needs of the organisation, team and customers.
Data driven: We are a data rich business with ~15,000 small customers. Each decision we make can impact many more people than we realise - so it’s critical that we use sound data to support our strategies and review the success of our initiatives.
Can have tough conversations in a positive way: It’s not a matter of if, but when difficult interpersonal situations arise. Disagreement, conflict and disappointment are a given in a fast moving business where people care about their work. People that proactively have tough conversations with kindness build empathy, trust and great working relationships.
Skills: Excellent organisational and time management skills.
Attention to Detail: High level of accuracy and attention to detail in documentation and reporting.
Adaptability: Flexibility to adapt to a fast-paced and high-pressure working environment.
Proactive Attitude: Takes initiative and anticipates needs, demonstrating a forward-thinking mindset.
Customer-Centric Approach: Strong commitment to delivering exceptional service and ensuring client satisfaction.
Strong Work Ethic: Demonstrates reliability, accountability, and dedication to achieving results.
