What’s inside the Company Secretary scorecard

This Company Secretary scorecard turns the role's mandate into 32 measurable KPIs, weighted to total 100% and grouped across the financial, customer, process and people perspectives. Enter actuals at the end of the period and the rating, weighted contribution and overall score fill in automatically.

32 KPIs across four perspectives

  • Financial
  • Customer & Stakeholder
  • Internal Processes
  • Learning & Growth

Eight measures per perspective, each with a strategic goal written for the Company Secretary role.

Columns on the sheet

Perspective · Strategic Goal · KPI / Measure · Unit · Reporting Frequency · Target Period · Direction · Base Target · Stretch Target · Weight % · Actual · Rating % · Weighted · Status

Only the yellow Actual cells need filling in — Rating % = (Actual − Base) ÷ (Stretch − Base) × 100, where Base = 0% and Stretch = 100%. Ratings are weighted and summed into an overall score, and the weighting total turns red if it does not reach 100%.

The sheet also carries a header block for the role holder, line manager and assessor, a rating scale with performance bands, worked examples, a governance note and a sign-off section. Direction, reporting frequency and target period are dropdowns, and each column header has a cell comment explaining what belongs there.

Company Secretary scorecard — FAQs

What is included in the Company Secretary scorecard template?

One Scorecard sheet containing 32 pre-written KPIs for the Company Secretary role, split evenly across the four balanced-scorecard perspectives (Financial, Customer & Stakeholder, Internal Processes, Learning & Growth). Each row carries a strategic goal, unit, reporting frequency, target period, direction, base and stretch targets and a weighting. The sheet also has a header block for the role holder and assessor, a rating scale, worked examples and a sign-off section.

Is the Company Secretary scorecard free to download?

Yes — it is a free download in Excel (.xlsx) and PDF, with no signup, account or payment required.

How is the overall score calculated?

Rating % = (Actual − Base) ÷ (Stretch − Base) × 100, where Base = 0% and Stretch = 100%. Each KPI's rating is multiplied by its weighting to give a weighted contribution, and those add up to the overall score. Weightings must total 100% — the total cell turns red if they do not. The yellow Actual cells are the only manual inputs; rating, weighted contribution, status and overall score all calculate from them.

Can I change the KPIs and targets for our own Company Secretary?

Yes, every cell is editable. Direction, reporting frequency and target period are dropdowns, and each column header carries a cell comment explaining what belongs there, so you can swap in your own measures and targets without breaking the scoring.

Can I use it for a mid-year review?

Yes. Any KPI left without an actual is excluded from the overall score, so a partly completed scorecard still produces a valid weighted result for the measures you have data for.
