Barcelona, España SITA A tiempo completo

**Overview**:
At **SITA**, we are meeting the new needs of travel... today. In an international high-performing culture, combining IT, Telecommunications, Air Transport and Critical Infrastructure, where people do great things together.

SITA is one of the world’s smallest multi-nationals. Our 4500 people are present across over 120 countries, in which we manage more than 350 legal entities. We serve an industry that is by its nature international. Our products and services are designed to support more efficient, easier, safer and greener air travel.

Under the overall accountability of the Group General Counsel & Company Secretary, SITA is looking for an experienced corporate lawyer/company secretary to lead a small team devoted to the corporate management of its subsidiaries, affiliates and branches across the globe.

On top of the functional skills and experience, this position requires a high sense of ownership, strong commercial acumen, the willingness to get into the detail while keeping a clear sense of direction and purpose and the ability to work with colleagues across all functions and in all corners of the world.

We are seeking to modernize and digitalize further our understanding of and access to corporate information and compliance so that it can be seen and reported in real-time. The role will involve challenging and influencing stakeholders, fostering relationships, and navigating complex, ambiguous situations to deliver transformative outcomes. It is also highly pragmatic in focus: this is about stuff that needs doing each day and needs to work.

**Your Mission**

In short, in this role you will be responsible for all month-to-month activity associated with the corporate management of SITA’s holding and subsidiaries, affiliates and branches across the globe.

In this role, you will be likely to interact with external counsel, commercial registries and other governmental authorities globally, and colleagues across the rest of the General Counsel function as well as Finance and the management of SITA’s business units and regional commercial teams.

You will directly manage a small team, currently comprising two other colleagues. You will be fully integrated into a great General Counsel function of 30+ lawyers and other professionals looking after legal, regulatory and compliance matters of SITA across the globe.

**Example of key responsibilities include**:
Main Board Support
- Supporting the Group General Counsel & Company Secretary in advising the Board and Boards of all subsidiaries of their duties and obligations especially in complex or sensitive matters
- Working closely with the Board and Shareholder Relation team.

Corporate Officer Appointment, Empowerment, Training and Support
- Ensuring that all SITA’s subsidiaries, affiliates and branches across the globe have the requisite directors and officers (including ensuring compliance with requirements on qualifications, residence, nationality) and delegations of authority
- Providing appropriate training and support to all corporate officers, to ensure the right level of expertise in those holding these positions and the maintenance of the highest standards of professionalism in all appointments

Corporate Policy and Intra-Group Engagements
- Working closely with Finance (and especially the Tax Team) and external advisers, you will ensure that all business units and regions have clarity on the choice of entity for the transaction of business
- Working closely with Finance (and especially the Tax Team) and external advisers, you will also ensure that all necessary intra-group and inter-company financing, contracts and engagements are documented and complied with

Corporate Compliance, Records, Registries and Filings
- Opening and Closing of all entities
- Refreshing and maintaining a comprehensive database of corporate compliance, records, commercial and other registries and necessary filing for each subsidiary, affiliate and branch
- Dashboarding and reporting on compliance with corporate regulations and filings globally; ensuring this information is always up-to-date and secure, yet available to those who need to know

M&A and Related Integration
- Ensuring the necessary integration of corporate processes and support, following any M&A or similar activity

**Do you recognize yourself ?**
- Drive & Problem Solver : You’re ambitious, you work hard because you love it, you own things and get them done
- People-centric : You can boost employee morale and motivation through setting a clear vision, objectives and sense of pride in the work being done (even when you are not the line manager).
