Outsource the PLC Company Secretary Role with Confidence

The company secretary of a Public Limited Company (PLC) carries out a vital role. They have to be qualified and experienced in certain key areas. In any PLC, the company secretarial function is one that should be carried out with confidence, which is why outsourcing this role should only be done through a company which is fully accredited, reliable and professional. London Registrars (http://www.london-registrars.co.uk/) is a corporate and legal support firm which provides expert outsourced support of the PLC company secretary role as part of its wider range of support services.

A PLC company secretary is required to be qualified as a company secretary, lawyer or accountant, or have specific previous experience as a PLC company secretary. They can be a member of one of a number of professional bodies (such as the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England, Scotland, Wales or Ireland; the Chartered Association of Certified Accountants; or the Institute of Chartered Secretaries and Administrators, for instance). There are also regulations relating to how long they have carried out company secretarial services for the company (or another PLC).

Considering the extent of necessary requirements to become a PLC company secretary, and the important responsibilities that the role involves (from filing accounts with Companies House to recording official minutes of directors’ meetings), many PLCs choose to outsource this function.
