About the role

We're looking for a technical, detail-oriented Senior Fund Accountant to join our Alternative Operations team. You'll be the primary owner of the Net Asset Value (NAV) for our private market vehicles — not just reporting on it, but acting as the bridge between our external fund administrators and our internal product and investment teams. Our Alternative offerings, ranging from Private Credit to Private Equity funds, need to be accounted for with institutional-grade precision, and that precision starts with you.

About the team

Fund Operations is the team that keeps our Alternative Investment Funds products running accurately and at scale. We own the operational functions behind private credit, private equity, private markets, venture, and infrastructure fund structures, including NAV oversight, capital activity, and financial reporting. We're a small, high-ownership team that works closely with Legal, Compliance, Investment Research, and external Fund Administrators, GPs, Custodians, and Auditors to build institutional-grade processes as our alternatives platform grows.

What you'll do:

• Join the Fund Operations team, and work directly with our Manager and other Fund Operations Associates to execute on daily fund accounting and capital activity processes

• Own NAV-related tasks including expense reviews, P&L verification, and cash and position reconciliations, to keep our funds' NAVs accurate and defensible

• Process capital activity for alternative funds, including subscriptions, redemptions, distributions, and capital calls, ensuring every transaction runs with precision

• Handle in-kind and mutual fund transfer transactions within Fundserv, acting as a subject matter expert on Fundserv from a fund manufacturing and dealer perspective

• Collaborate with Asset Management, Compliance, Product, Trading, and Engineering to ensure the accuracy of client records and flag operational issues before they become client-facing problems
