Senior Specialist-Corporate Paralegal

Overview

Provides paralegal-level support for corporate housekeeping, entity governance and transaction-related administration across FME group affiliates worldwide, working under the guidance of supervising attorneys.

What you'll do

• Support corporate housekeeping matters and coordinate routine legal guidance/advice requests pertaining to FME group affiliates worldwide, under attorney and senior paralegal direction
• Draft, prepare and coordinate standard corporate law documents (by-laws, resolutions, etc.) for defined, routine matters, compiling relevant corporate information
• Maintain and update the FME group entity database, supporting data accuracy and completeness under senior paralegal oversight
• Prepare corporate registration documents and support registrations with relevant institutions (e.g. companies house, local courts) for routine filings
• Support other registration and publication requirements, coordinating measures, steps and documentation as directed
• Support governance activities across FME group entities (e.g. board/shareholder actions) by coordinating documentation and process execution under attorney and senior paralegal direction
• Track adherence to internal governance requirements for assigned matters, escalating approval and interpretation questions to the supervising attorneys
• Support M&A, financing and other corporate transactions by preparing and coordinating routine transaction-related documentation (powers of attorney, resolutions, confirmations, representations, etc.), under attorney and senior paralegal direction
• Support closing mechanics and documentation checklists for assigned transactions
• Prepare and coordinate routine interactions with notaries public, courts, embassies, consulates and other public institutions relevant to FME group entities, within a clearly defined, attorney-authorized scope
• Support internal and external stakeholder communications relevant to corporate housekeeping and transaction administration
• Execute defined corporate housekeeping, governance-support and transaction-administration tasks independently with limited supervision; make decisions on moderately complex issues, typically requiring interpretation of established procedure
• Escalate complex, ambiguous or precedent-setting matters to the supervising attorneys rather than resolving them independently
• Represent FME in coordination with external institutions (notaries, courts, registries) within a narrowly defined, attorney-authorized scope, typically for routine or lower-risk matters
• Modify existing administrative processes to fit specific matters; do not redesign governance or transaction-support processes

What you'll need

• Bachelor's degree required; no law degree or bar admission required
• Bachelor's degree with approximately 4–8 years of relevant experience, or Master's degree with 3+ years, including experience in corporate paralegal or entity administration work, ideally supporting multi-jurisdictional group structures in a multinational or shared-services/GBS environment
• Familiarity with corporate entity databases and registration processes across multiple jurisdictions
• Strong organizational and drafting skills; high attention to detail
• Excellent written and spoken English required
• Discretion and ability to handle confidential corporate and transactional information

Nice to have

• Paralegal certification or equivalent legal-support qualification preferred
• Exposure to M&A or financing transaction documentation (powers of attorney, resolutions, closing checklists) is a plus
• Additional languages an advantage given the global entity portfolio
