Build a governance career that works for you
Explore flexible governance, company secretarial and board support careers across Jersey and Guernsey.
At Virteffic, we combine flexible working with meaningful client responsibilities, professional standards and opportunities to develop.
Whether you bring established governance experience or relevant transferable skills, we’d be interested in hearing from you.
A different way to build a professional career
Virteffic was founded to offer experienced professionals greater flexibility while maintaining the standards and responsibilities that professional governance work requires.
Our team brings together people with different professional backgrounds and levels of experience. We work independently, support one another and share responsibility for delivering high-quality work to our clients.
We recognise that people have commitments and priorities outside work. Our approach is built around trust, clear communication and managing client responsibilities properly.
What working at Virteffic looks like
Our working model combines professional responsibility, flexibility and trust. We work across different clients and assignments while remaining connected as a team.
Flexibility with responsibility
Our remote-first approach provides flexibility in how work is organised, subject to client requirements, agreed availability and deadlines. We expect people to manage commitments responsibly and communicate clearly.
Work that keeps you learning
Our assignments involve different organisations, boards, committees and governance requirements. Depending on your role, you may gain experience across different clients and types of work.
Trust from the outset
We give people responsibility appropriate to their experience and capability, supported by clear expectations, guidance and regular communication. We value initiative and sound professional judgement.
A team, wherever we are working
Although much of our work is undertaken remotely, we stay connected through communication, knowledge sharing and opportunities to meet in person.
