When you decide to perform the company secretarial function internally and appoint an employee or director as company secretary, rather than appointing an outside adviser or service company to fulfil the role, the job of company secretary will usually include management of administrative matters, including possibly the accounting function, and liaising with other external professional advisers.

Why have a nominee secretary? Situations often arise where clients wish to appoint an independent third party as their company secretary. The reasons for this vary but the following are typical examples: appointment of a professional organisation in the role of company secretary can ensure that the company has access to accurate and up to date information concerning matters of company law. An independent company secretary can provide advice and support for the directors and leave them free to concentrate on operating the business side of the company. Appearance to potential suppliers or customers and the public in general. "One man" companies can benefit from the service where the director does not wish to involve family members or friends.
