FTSE 100 - Deputy Secretary

Our fully listed client seeks to recruit a Deputy Secretary with significant experience to join the team to provide proactive support. The rest of the team comprises an Assistant Secretary, Co Sec Administrator and EA/Board Support. This is an exciting opportunity to work with and support the Group Company Secretary and a FTSE50 PLC Board.
