This is an opportunity to make a significant influence on the exceptional potential of our business and the evolution of the medicinal cannabis industry.

2. Governance and Risk – Manage the Risk Committee and report to the Board and Executive team on key business risks and governance or regulatory issues.

3. Company Secretarial – advise the Board on responsibilities and duties under the Corporations Act, corporate governance regulations and any other regulatory matter. Ensure agendas, papers, meetings and minutes are professionally prepared in a timely manner to drive quality decisions. Manage the company's regulatory obligations, shareholder registry and any employee share plans.

4. Compliance and Reporting – develop, implement and monitor our internal compliance framework including governance policies. Ensure all reporting requirements are accurate, professionally presented and timely.

5. Growth, M&A and Strategy – partner with the executive leadership team to drive growth, whilst balancing risk. Play a lead role in any M&A or funding transactions ensuring shareholder, customer and employee interests are protected or grown.

6. Leadership – demonstrate constructive behaviours in the senior leadership team and work collaboratively with staff at all levels of the business.

Essential Skills and Experience:

  • 10 years post-admission experience, preferably in-house for a large corporation or in a top-tier firm.
  • AICD Company Secretary qualification or 5 years performing this function for a high-growth business
  • Experience in regulated industries is essential. Healthcare, pharmaceuticals, or cannabis are highly-desirable.
  • UK experience is also highly desirable.
  • Excellent strategic thinking, written and verbal communication, and interpersonal skills.
  • Commercially savvy and can balance risk.

What's In It For You:
