The Role

This is a hands-on fund accounting position with real ownership. You will sit inside a lean, high-caliber finance team and manage dedicated fund structures end to end: from quarterly close through year-end audit. You will be in the work from day one, not supporting from the sidelines.

You will report directly to the Director of Finance and work alongside institutional counterparties including a Big 4 auditor and a major bank fund administrator.

  • GAAP accounting and technical trade booking
  • Day-to-day and monthly management of the third-party fund administrator relationship
  • Parallel NAV calculations alongside the administrator and tie-out
  • Year-end audit coordination and timely completion 
  • Capital calls and distributions: monthly, with additional complexity at close
  • Coordination with the internal tax team on trade clarifications and structuring questions
  • Support for regulatory filings and annual/quarterly tax reporting

 

What we're looking for

  • CPA required
  • 4–7 years of experience in fund accounting or public accounting with fund/credit clients
  • Big 4 background strongly preferred
  • Demonstrated experience with waterfall calculations, capital calls, and capital distributions
  • Prior experience coordinating year-end audits with external auditors
  • Prior experience working directly with a third-party fund administrator
  • Strong Excel skills; proficiency in MS Office
  • Experience with credit, asset-backed securities, consumer loans, or securitizations preferred
  • Self-starter who can take ownership of processes in a lean, fast-moving environment

 

Compensation

  • Base salary: $125,000 – $140,000
  • Discretionary bonus
  • Carry upside potential
