The Role

We are looking for a Company Secretary to own regulatory compliance and corporate governance. You will make sure the company meets the standards its RBI-regulated lending partners expect from a Lending Service Provider, keep corporate and ROC compliance spotless, and work closely with product, technology and operations to build compliance into everything launched. It is a role with real challenges and real ownership.

What You Will Own

01 RBI and Digital Lending Compliance

• Own compliance as a Lending Service Provider under the RBI Digital Lending Directions, 2025.
• Manage lending-partner due diligence, LSP agreements and periodic reviews.
• Keep borrower disclosures, key fact statements and grievance redressal compliant and current.
• Track RBI circulars and turn them into clear actions for product, tech and operations.

02 Corporate Secretarial and ROC

• Run Board meetings, AGMs and EGMs per the Companies Act, 2013 and SS-1 / SS-2.
• Draft notices, agendas, minutes and resolutions; maintain statutory registers.
• File and track ROC and MCA forms, including AOC-4, MGT-7, ADT-1, DIR-3 KYC, DPT-3, MSME-1 and MGT-14.
• Handle changes in directors, share capital and registered office.

03 Policies, Data and Governance

• Draft and refresh Board-approved policies: fair practices, grievance redressal, privacy, outsourcing, code of conduct.
• Lead Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 readiness with tech and security teams.
• Run a policy review cycle and keep audit-ready, versioned evidence.

04 Contracts, Audits and Reporting

• Review compliance clauses in lender, channel-partner and vendor agreements with legal counsel.
• Prepare declarations, undertakings and compliance certificates for partners.
• Run statutory, internal and partner audits, and draft responses to regulatory notices.
• Own the master compliance calendar and a regular compliance report for management and the Board.

What We Are Looking For

Must Have

• Qualified Company Secretary (ACS / FCS), member of ICSI.
• 2+ years of post-qualification experience in secretarial and regulatory compliance, ideally in lending, fintech or financial services.
• Working knowledge of the RBI Digital Lending Directions, 2025, including the lender and LSP framework, KFS and grievance redressal.
• Strong command of the Companies Act, 2013, SS-1 / SS-2 and the MCA portal.
• Sharp drafting for Board papers, policies and regulator or partner responses.
• Deadline discipline and the judgement to act where rules are still evolving.

Good to Have

• Knowledge of SEBI compliances.
• Experience at an NBFC, bank or SEBI-registered intermediary.
• Familiarity with the DPDP Act, 2023, KYC / AML norms and IT outsourcing guidelines.
• Has handled partner audits or regulatory inspections.
• Comfortable with compliance software and building simple trackers.
• Explains regulation in plain language to product, tech and business teams.

Why Join

Ownership: Lead the compliance function, not a slice of it. Your calls shape how the company operates.

Breadth: RBI, Companies Act and data protection in one role, across multiple regulated partners.

Build: Work with product and tech as new credit products are designed, not after they launch.
