Job Description & How to Apply Below
Are you a high-performing fund accountant ready to step beyond routine close cycles and into a role with real visibility, ownership, and strategic exposure?
We’re partnering with a growing alternative investment platform seeking a Senior Fund Accountant to play a key role in overseeing fund operations, financial reporting, and investor deliverables across a dynamic portfolio. This is an opportunity to join a team where accounting is viewed as a strategic function — not just a back-office necessity.
Why This Role Stands Out- Direct exposure to senior leadership – Work closely with Controllers, CFOs, and investment teams. Your work directly informs decision-making.
- Complex, interesting structures – Multi-entity fund structures, intricate waterfall calculations, capital activity, and sophisticated investment strategies.
- Ownership, not task execution – Lead month/quarter-end closes, review NAV packages, manage auditors, and improve processes — not just prepare support schedules.
- High-growth platform – Be part of a firm scaling its AUM, launching new vehicles, and expanding strategies.
- Career acceleration – Clear path toward Assistant Controller / Fund Controller level responsibilities.
- Oversee NAV calculations and review fund financial statements
- Manage capital calls, distributions, and investor allocations
- Coordinate with administrators and external auditors
- Improve internal controls and accounting workflows
- Support ad hoc reporting and strategic finance initiatives
- 2-6 years of experience in fund accounting within private equity, private credit, hedge funds, or real assets
- Deep understanding of partnership accounting and capital activity
- Comfortable reviewing complex waterfall models
- Experience working with administrators and audit teams
- Strong attention to detail paired with a proactive, ownership mindset
