Corporate Governance Specialist (MNC / Hybrid)

Ready to take your corporate governance career to a truly global stage?

Our client, an MNC, is a highly respected international legal & compliance solutions provider, operating across 8 countries — is expanding its specialised legal entity management team and is looking for a Corporate Governance Specialist to join their growing hub in Malaysia.

If you enjoy working across borders, managing complex legal entities and acting as a trusted advisor to internal and external stakeholders — this role might be your next step.

What You’ll Be Doing

1. Oversee compliance of legal entities with applicable laws and regulations across various jurisdictions;
2. Maintain and organize legal documentation, including by-laws, contracts, minutes of meetings, and other relevant legal documents;
3. Draft and revise documents relating to legal entities;
4. Coordinate the work of local law firms and corporate service providers in various jurisdictions;
5. Carry out research in the business unit’s specialist field;
6. Carry out administrative and legal tasks assigned by the manager.

What We’re Looking For

1. University degree;
2. A minimum of 3 to 5 years of relevant professional experience;
3. Excellent command of written and spoken English; good command of Chinese (Mandarin);
4. Good analysis skills: ability to interpret applicable laws, regulations and case law;
5. Proactive, curious, rigorous, detail-oriented, professional and organized (deadlines and priority management);
6. Good oral communication skills;
7. Sense of service and team spirit.

Why This Role Stands Out

• Global legal exposure, multi-jurisdictional work
• Work with supportive leaders who invest in your development
• Continuous learning culture — build high-value corporate governance expertise
• Not a law firm, not a corporate secretarial firm — but a modern hybrid of both
• Competitive remuneration, based on experience + skillset
