Virtual Governance Administration
MelSa Productivity provides remote governance administration support services to small, specialist firms and UK-based subsidiaries of overseas companies that operate as limited companies or limited liability partnerships.
In addition to supporting these companies with their general, non-external facing governance administration, I also support them in creating a logical and easy-to-follow information management system to ensure that they can easily maintain compliance with the statutory obligations of various regulatory bodies, e.g. the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA).
Within this service, tasks may include:
Company Secretarial
- Minute taking support (standalone service)
- Data protection registration
- Preparing routine investor/member correspondence
- Board administration, including drafting resolutions and facilitating signatures
- Keeping 'Know Your Customer' (KYC) processes up-to-date for contractual parties and investors
- Assisting with company formation administration for new UK subsidiaries of existing international entities
- Updating and maintaining investor/member packs for incorporated entities
- Electronic record-keeping and organisation of official documentation
- Facilitating document certification and/or translation, where needed (at cost)
- Drafting and/or submitting official documentation and correspondence to various bodies, e.g. HMRC or Companies House
Projects
- Creating and implementing new operating and/or procurement processes
- Setting up shared virtual workspaces - i.e. G Suite, Office365, project management tools, CRM systems, etc.
Strategic Research
- Project-specific research, e.g. competitor benchmarking or supplier/software procurement

Fees
There are two billing options available for the Virtual Governance Administration service, depending on the level of support that you decide is most suitable for you:
- Hourly Rate: £45+VAT per hour (as of 1 January 2021).
- Day Rate: £350+VAT per day (as of 1 January 2021).
If preferred, either option may be quoted in the form of a set monthly rate.
Note: For urgent requests (i.e. to start within 48 hours), a one-off “rush fee” of £250+VAT will apply in order to have your service up and running within that window.
