Corporate Secretary, Legal & Compliance Manager India.

What You'll Do:

You are performing all corporate secretarial and statutory compliance tasks of Emma Sleep India Private Limited.
You organize and run board and general meetings, prepare resolutions and minutes, and maintain all statutory registers, minute books and records.
You manage our ROC filings and annual compliance cycle under the Companies Act, including annual returns, director declarations and KYC, auditor appointments, share allotments and changes to the entity’s constitutional documents.
You monitor our RBI and FEMA obligations, such as annual returns, FDI and ECB reporting, and the reporting of intra-group payments and dividend repatriation, together with our finance and tax teams.
You take care of registrations and local compliance, including GST, Shops and Establishment, Professional Tax, EPFO and digital signatures, and keep our office addresses and licenses in order.
You own our POSH compliance: you support the Internal Committee, track its set-up, meetings and annual filings, organize trainings and keep case records confidential and complete.
You work with our external advisors, auditors and authorities, and make sure that external support is used where it adds value, and not where an Emmie can do it faster.
You act as legal sparring partner for our India team and advise on day-to-day questions, for example on contracts, e-commerce and consumer regulations, and other compliance topics, and involve external counsel when needed.
You support selected corporate secretarial tasks for our other APAC entities, together with our local teams and advisors.
You continuously improve our processes: compliance calendars, templates and documentation that make the next filing easier than the last one.

Who We're Looking For:

You are a qualified Company Secretary (ICSI) and/or hold a law degree with strong achievements.
You have 3+ years of experience in corporate secretarial and compliance work, ideally in-house at a multinational or at a law, company secretary or chartered accountant firm.
You have solid hands-on knowledge of the Indian Companies Act, FEMA/RBI regulations for foreign-owned subsidiaries, and the POSH Act.
Experience with GST, labour law registrations or e-commerce and consumer regulations in India is a plus. Exposure to other APAC jurisdictions is a big plus.
You are fluent in English and comfortable working with colleagues across time zones.
You are well organized, deadline-driven and detail-oriented, and you keep an overview when many filings come together.
You are hands-on and not afraid to speak up, you enjoy questioning the status quo and you are a true team player.
