This is a hands‑on support role within the Due Diligence function. The position is suited to a diligent and well‑organised individual looking to build experience in client due diligence, and corporate information management within a fast‑paced work environment. This position requires close collaboration with the business operations and Finance team.

  • Liaise with internal stakeholders (Finance, Legal, Compliance, HR, IT, Commercial, and Company Secretariat) to collate required information and supporting documentation.

  • Maintain and update a central repository of standard due diligence responses, key corporate information, and relevant supporting documents to promote consistency and efficiency.

  • Support the management of the due diligence inbox and providing regular progress updates to the sales team.

  • Assist with preparing, formatting, and reviewing responses prior to submission, ensuring accuracy and completeness.

  • Support data organisation and content updates within the due diligence knowledge repository, including contributions to future AI‑enabled tools.

  • Support the development of an AI repository tool.

  • Provide support during the annual group insurance renewal process, including gathering and validating information requested by brokers.

  • Contribute to the continuous improvement of due diligence processes, templates, and internal guidance materials.

  • Support the Company Secretarial Officer with ad-hoc projects as required.

    Skills and Experience

  • 2+ years of experience in a corporate, legal, compliance, or administrative support role.

  • Previous experience in a fast‑paced, coordination‑heavy, and versatile environment.

  • Strong organisational and time‑management skills, with the ability to manage multiple requests and deadlines.

  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.

  • High attention to detail and accuracy.

  • Comfortable working with cross‑functional and international teams.

  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office (Outlook, Excel, Word, SharePoint).

    Educational qualification:

A degree in Law, Commerce, or Finance (any one is mandatory).

Desirable Skills & Certifications:

  • Strong understanding of:

    • Corporate law

    • Regulatory frameworks and compliance

    • Standard corporate and compliance documentation review

  • Experience or training in:
