Flawless ESOP Administration.
Protect Your Equity.
Managing an Employee Share Scheme (ESS) or ESOP requires meticulous record-keeping, compliance tracking, and constant participant communication. Delegate the administrative burden to a highly vetted, fully managed Equity Operations VA.

Mastery in Equity & Governance Platforms
Core Operational Roles
Precision Equity Administration.
Your ESS Managing VA handles the complex, data-heavy backend of employee ownership, ensuring compliance and clear communication so you can focus on strategic growth.
Cap Table & Vesting Tracking
Meticulous record-keeping. We maintain your capitalization tables in Excel or Carta, tracking employee allocations, complex vesting schedules, and calculating available pools.
Participant Communication
We act as the frontline for employee inquiries. Generating and distributing annual benefit statements, answering basic scheme FAQs, and coordinating ESOP committee meetings.
Compliance & Document Assembly
Supporting corporate governance. We organize plan documents, draft option agreements, prepare Board resolutions, and route documents through DocuSign for execution.
Distributions & Repurchase Obligation
Managing the off-boarding process. When employees depart or retire, your VA processes distribution forms, calculates FMV payouts, and updates the liability forecasts.
Valuation Audit Support
Preparing for annual appraisals. Your VA compiles updated employee census data, organizes financial statements, and readies the data room for independent valuation firms.
Third-Party Coordination
We act as the liaison between your internal HR/Finance teams and external legal counsel, TPAs (Third Party Administrators), and ESOP trustees to ensure smooth operations.
