The opportunity
Datadog employs roughly 8,100 people across 35 countries through global subsidiaries, all under a Nevada parent. Some are operating companies.
What you'll do
Entity lifecycle. Manage formations, foreign qualifications, branch: registrations, conversions, mergers, dissolutions, liquidations and deregistrations for our US and international entities, working with outside service providers and local counsel in each jurisdiction.
Good standing. Keep every entity in good standing wherever it operates. That: covers annual reports and returns, statutory filings and business licenses. It also covers records for registered agents and agents for service of process, and the local compliance requirements that differ by country.
Government agencies and registries. Deal directly with company registries,: tax authorities, chambers of commerce and other government bodies on filings, registrations, certificates and inquiries, some of which need regular follow-up.
Compliance calendar. Own the global entity compliance calendar. Know what is: due, where and when, and flag it early rather than relying on a service provider's reminder.
Directors, officers and authority. Track director and officer appointments: and resignations, maintain signature and delegation of authority records, and prepare powers of attorney, incumbency certificates and secretary's certificates. Keep internal systems current and make sure the people who need to know about a change in signing authority are told.
Portfolio rationalization. Review the legacy and dormant entities we hold,: including those that came in through acquisitions. Form a view on which should be maintained, consolidated or wound down, then carry out the plan.
What they're looking for
- Corporate records. Maintain minute books, statutory registers, organizational: charts and entity records worldwide, in physical and electronic form, so the portfolio stays audit-ready.
- Governance documents. Draft board and stockholder resolutions, written: consents, minutes for subsidiary matters, and organizational documents such as articles, bylaws and operating agreements, in support of routine governance matters and corporate transactions, for attorney review.
- Document requests. Turn around internal and external requests for: certificates of good standing, certified copies, apostilles and legalizations. These usually block something, so speed matters.
- Incoming requests. Respond to and manage Know Your Customer (KYC), Ultimate: Beneficial Ownership (UBO) and related diligence requests from banks, financial partners, customers and other stakeholders.
