About the Role
We are seeking a qualified Company Secretary to own the corporate secretarial and governance function for the Goodera group, the Indian parent and its overseas entities, as we prepare for a public listing in India. This is a build-and-scale role: you will clean up legacy compliance, institutionalize processes that survive due diligence, and grow with the company into a listed-company secretarial function.
You will work directly with Finance, Tax & Compliance, and Legal leadership, and coordinate with statutory auditors, practicing company secretaries, RTAs, merchant bankers, and US counsel.
Career arc: For the right candidate, this role is a pathway to Compliance Officer of a listed company under SEBI (LODR) Regulations - one of the most accelerated governance mandates available at this experience level.
Responsibilities
Core Secretarial & Statutory Compliance (India)
Own the full Companies Act, 2013 compliance calendar: board meetings, committee meetings, general meetings, resolutions, and filings (AOC-4, MGT-7, DIR-3 KYC, event-based forms)
across the Indian entity and any Indian subsidiaries.
Draft agendas, notices, and minutes in conformity with Secretarial Standards (SS-1 and SS-2); maintain statutory registers and minute books to due-diligence standard.
Overhaul and digitize legacy statutory records, registers, and filings so the company is perpetually ready for investor, banker, and regulator diligence.
Manage remediation of historical gaps: condonation of delay, compounding applications, revival or strike-off of dormant entities, and re-execution of defective corporate documents.
Replace manual tracking with an automated compliance calendar covering ROC/MCA, FEMA/RBI, and (in time) SEBI/stock exchange deadlines with defined owners and escalation.
FEMA / RBI & Cross-Border Compliance
Handle inbound investment reporting (FC-GPR, FC-TRS), annual FLA returns, and downstream/ODI compliance for the US subsidiary structure.
