The posting

ABOUT US

We’re the world’s leading provider of secure financial messaging services, headquartered in Belgium. We are the way the world moves value – across borders, through cities and overseas. No other organisation can address the scale, precision, pace and trust that this demands, and we’re proud to support the global economy.

We’re unique too. We were established to find a better way for the global financial community to move value – a reliable, safe and secure approach that the community can trust, completely. We’re always striving to be better and are constantly evolving in an ever-changing landscape, without undermining that trust. Five decades on, our vibrant community reflects the complexity and diversity of the financial ecosystem. We innovate diligently, test exhaustively, then implement fast. In a connected and exciting era, our mission has never been more relevant. Swift now has a presence in 200+ countries and legal territories to serve a community of more than 12,000 banks and financial institutions.

The Corporate Secretariat has primary responsibility for supporting and maintaining Swift's Corporate Governance framework, and comprises the Board Office, the Management Board Office, and the Swift Council Office. The Corporate Secretariat ensures that governance arrangements operate effectively and continue to support the organisation's strategic objectives, regulatory obligations, and cooperative purpose.

The Board Office supports the Supervisory Board and its Committees on all governance-related matters, such as coordinating governance processes, ensuring the accurate documentation and implementation of decisions, maintaining governance policies and procedures, and providing advice and guidance to governance bodies in the discharge of their responsibilities.

We are seeking a Corporate Governance Specialist to support the ongoing activities of the Board Office, contribute to the continuous enhancement of Swift's governance framework, and provide governance support to the Supervisory Board and its Committees, and assist with liaison with the other teams in the Corporate Secretariat.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Maintain governance documentation, policies, charters, terms of reference, and supporting records to ensure ongoing accuracy and compliance.
  • Maintain governance calendars, annual work plans, and material topics requiring Supervisory Board and Committee oversight.
  • Facilitate the preparation of agendas, meeting materials, draft minutes, and follow-up actions.
  • Perform quality assurance reviews of Board and Committee materials (papers, slide decks) to ensure submissions are clear, concise, aligned with approved paper-writing guidelines, and appropriately focused on the decisions, discussions, or information required from governance bodies.
  • Support periodic governance reviews and effectiveness assessments and contribute to the implementation of resulting recommendations.
  • Respond to day-to-day governance queries from internal stakeholders and provide practical guidance on governance processes and requirements.
  • Review and enhance governance processes, standard operating procedures, guidance materials, and supporting documentation to promote efficiency and good governance practices.

Qualifications:

  • BA in Corporate Governance, Law, Business Administration, Finance, or a related field.
  • 5+ years of experience in a company secretariat, or a legal, compliance, or related governance function.
  • Strong understanding of Corporate Governance principles, governance frameworks, and relevant regulatory requirements, particularly within a Belgian environment.
  • Experience supporting a Supervisory Board, its Committees, a Management Board, and General Meetings or equivalent governance bodies.
  • Familiarity with governance reporting, governance documentation management, and shareholder administration activities.
  • Strong attention to detail and ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced governance environment.
  • Excellent organisational, analytical, communication, and stakeholder management skills.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
