• Secretarial Officer: A separate role in the same function, with a shared job profile covering company records, filings and shareholder matters.

Service Conditions and Caveats

• Posting: Your initial workplace is Mumbai, but the company may send you to its offices or projects elsewhere in India.
• Working hours: The weekday schedule uses flexible reporting and leaving times while retaining a full working day. Work on Saturdays or holidays may be needed without additional compensation.
• Leave: The notice provides privilege leave, casual leave and restricted holidays, with separate accrual and lapse rules. Extension periods use proportionate leave entitlement.
• Confidentiality: You must sign a non-disclosure agreement and provide property returns on joining and annually afterwards.
• Ending the contract: Either side normally gives one month's notice or payment instead. SCILAL may decline an employee's termination notice when disciplinary proceedings are pending or contemplated.
