Company Secretary

About The Role

As Volta scales across multiple jurisdictions and entities, strong corporate governance becomes a competitive advantage – it keeps the Board informed, keeps our filings clean, and keeps the business ready for its next round of capital or a new market. This role is at the center of that work.

As Company Secretary, you will be the primary point of accountability for corporate governance across Volta and its global subsidiaries. You'll organize and support Board and Committee meetings, maintain statutory records across every entity in our structure, and act as a trusted advisor to the Board and executive team on governance matters.

You'll work closely with the General Counsel, external counsel, and auditors, and you'll play a direct role in supporting Volta's capital raising and corporate transactions as the company continues to grow.
