Overview

Senior Accountant – High‑Growth Investment Firm | Hybrid Flexibility

If you’re coming from public or corporate accounting and looking for a role where your technical skills translate into real ownership, faster growth, and a healthier work‑life rhythm, this opportunity hits the mark. A rapidly expanding investment platform is adding a Senior Accountant to its accounting team—offering the perfect blend of complexity, career acceleration, and hybrid flexibility.

Why Candidates Love This Role
  • You move from audit/support to true ownership of fund‑level accounting and for those without industry experience - a chance to break into the investment management industry
  • You gain exposure to forecasting, investor reporting, and performance analytics
  • You step into a collaborative environment where your ideas actually shape processes
  • You keep the technical rigor you’re used to—without the grind of busy season hours
  • You get hybrid flexibility while still being part of a high‑performing in‑office culture
What You’ll Take On
  • Lead accounting and reporting for one or more investment vehicles
  • Manage monthly and quarterly close processes with increasing autonomy
  • Prepare reporting packages used directly by senior leadership
  • Support capital activity, distributions, and investor‑level reporting
  • Assist with forecasting, performance analysis, and system enhancements
  • Partner with operations, tax, treasury, valuation, and technology teams
  • Strengthen controls, support audits, and contribute to automation initiatives
What You Bring
  • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting or Finance
  • 1 to 5 years of experience—public accounting or GAAP‑focused backgrounds highly valued
  • CPA preferred or in progress
  • Strong technical accounting foundation and comfort with complex structures
  • Advanced Excel skills and interest in modern financial systems
  • Ability to communicate clearly, think critically, and thrive in a fast‑moving environment
  • A growth mindset and enthusiasm for a hybrid, collaborative culture
Why This Role Stands Out
  • Real upward mobility as the platform continues to scale
  • Hybrid schedule that balances flexibility with meaningful in‑office collaboration
  • A team that values continuous improvement, technology, and fresh ideas
