Job Details

Although this is a full-time role, we are open to discussing work arrangements that help you to balance work with your commitments outside of work. 

For over 30 years, we’ve helped people transform their homes through finding the flooring that’s right for their lifestyle. Not only helping them find that perfect floor but providing a full end-to-end service, irrespective of whether the customer’s journey starts in store or online.

Our stores and online trading functions are backed up by a central team who are predominately based at our central support centre in Purfleet, Essex. 

One of that support team -our Company Secretary-  is off to have a baby, which means that whilst she is taking special care of her little one, we are looking for someone to hold the fort, and take special care of her responsibilities whilst she is away.  

Reporting to the CFO, this is a key role within our organisation.  Working cross functionally to deliver a pro-active, professional company secretariat and corporate governance service to the Board of Directors and the wider business, the successful candidate will ensure that we are able to continue to efficiently and effectively fulfil our statutory and regulatory obligations across the UK, ROI and other European jurisdictions.

Key responsibilities will include:

  • The preparation of meeting agendas.  Taking notes and preparing minutes
  • Statutory and regulatory filings and registers,
  • Responding to questions in relation to DPA and GDPR compliance
  • Facilitating the provision of guidance to the business on FCA compliance
  • Assisting with the preparation of the annual report and accounts as required
  • Facilitating the provision of guidance to the business on pricing rules
  • Effective administration of insurance policies
  • Supporting and advising the business in matters of dispute as required

Sound interesting?  We are looking for a graduate with c3-5 years’ experience in a similar role which has been complimented with an ICSA qualification. 

You will need to be able to leverage your experience, intellect, communication skills and excellent organisational capability to deliver a first-class, collaborative service to the business.  Independent, highly motivated and energetic, you will need a pragmatic and can-do approach, backed up with a proven track record of success.

This role is a fixed term role (up to 12m) and offers an exciting challenge working alongside a highly motivated leadership team.
