Spanish term or phrase: sindicatura y sindico titular
"la fiscalización de la sociedad estará a cargo de un sindicato titular."

I only found trustee in bankrupcy (sindico) and trusteeship in bankruptcy (sindicatura).

Please help.

English translation:I believe that
Explanation:
given the context you are talking about a "statutory auditor", sometimes known in some latinamerican countries as "comisario" of the company. Since US Law doesn't contemplate such a figure, I think you would be safe with the term suggested. As for titular, you could use proprietary statutory auditor.

Best of luck!

There is no equivalent in U.S. law.) 3. legal representative on a municipal council (also called "sindico municipal"

sindicatura=receivership; administracion judicial (as per Alcaraz Varo)

Explanation:
Although these do not have the same legal status in the UK and US as they do in some South American countries, they perform the same functions. I don't see that the fact that they are required by law in one place but not in another is really an issue for the translator, as it has no bearing on the best way of translating the term.
