Legal Corporate Governance Paralegal

About the role

Chance to work inside a large, sophisticated, diversified organization with exposure to an unusually broad corporate structure. Since the company is privately held, the governance work differs from a public company corporate secretary role, with less recurring SEC reporting, making it less redundant, less time‑consuming, and less boring. The role provides significant exposure to senior executives, board matters, acquisitions, reorganizations, subsidiaries, and minority investments, and offers the opportunity to help modernize the legal department’s workflows through AI and legal technology.

Responsibilities

• Manage entity data, corporate records, board/governance matters, subsidiaries, transactions, formations, reorganizations, resolutions, and minutes.
• Work within the team’s homegrown entity‑management database/corporate register.
• Interact regularly with senior executives and board‑level stakeholders, requiring polished communication skills.
• Maintain high attention to detail given the volume of entity data (approximately 600‑700 entities/investments, 300‑400 subsidiaries).
• Utilize AI tools such as ChatGPT Enterprise and Claude to improve workflows while ensuring quality control.

Requirements

• 5‑10 years of relevant experience.
• Background either in‑house or at a law firm (in‑house candidates may be preferred).
• Strong experience in entity management, corporate records, board/governance matters, subsidiaries, transactions, formations, reorganizations, resolutions, and minutes.
• Comfort learning and working accurately within internal systems.
• Experience with AI tools like ChatGPT or Claude (Copilot not used internally).

Skills

• Polished and strong communication skills for senior‑level interaction.
• High attention to detail.
• Ability to incorporate AI into legal workflows and spot practical efficiencies.
• Organizational and technical aptitude for homegrown entity‑management database.
