Corporate Secretary & Compliance Manager

Rose Hall (Developments) Limited is seeking an experienced Corporate Secretary & Compliance Manager to oversee corporate governance, regulatory compliance, and the protection of the company's land and business interests.

Rose Hall (Developments) Limited is, first and foremost, a real estate development company - one of Jamaica's most celebrated and diversified organisations, anchored in the historic Rose Hall area of St. James. Beyond land development and real estate sales, our operations span championship golf at the White Witch and Cinnamon Hill Golf Courses, heritage tourism at the Rose Hall Great House and Cinnamon Hill Great House, weddings and events, and a Utilities Division providing water reclamation and potable water distribution services.

The breadth of this portfolio - each business unit carrying its own regulatory, licensing, and corporate obligations - makes the Corporate Secretary & Compliance Manager a role of significant institutional trust and operational reach.

Reporting directly to the President, the Corporate Secretary & Compliance Manager holds senior responsibility across four interconnected domains: corporate governance and company secretarial practice, regulatory compliance and licensing across all business units, real estate transaction coordination with external legal counsel, and insurance administration. This is a role requiring professional maturity, deep knowledge of Jamaican corporate and regulatory law, and the organisational discipline to manage multiple compliance obligations simultaneously without dropping the ball on any of them.
