About this task

This Series C AI research company for document processing (501–1,000 employees) is looking for a senior Corporate Secretary & Governance for an ongoing part-time engagement of 1–2 h a week. Accurate minutes and action lists.

The company wants a senior person on this without carrying the cost of a full-time role. It builds AI products and needs human experts to check what the models produce.

The work is fully remote, but the company can only contract people who live in California, so this one is for residents there. Most people do this on weekday evenings; replies inside the working day are not expected. About 2 hours a week should overlap with the team's day (PT).

What you deliver

  • Attend and draft board meeting minutes and a resolution tracker within two working days.
  • Work logged against the agreed list, so the company contact can see progress without a call
  • A short handover note when the engagement pauses or ends
  • A written update every Friday with what was done, what is next and anything blocked

What a week looks like

  • Tuesday: 15-minute check-in to agree the week's items
  • Thursday: main working block (1 hours)
  • Friday: hand-off note with what shipped and what is open

Duration: 12 weeks, renewable. Accepted on the company's written OK. If something is missed, you fix it in the same week at no extra charge to either side.
