Job Description:

Mondrian Alpha has partnered with a rapidly growing Credit Hedge Fund to appoint a Fund Controller, reporting directly to the Deputy CFO. Despite being a relatively young firm, they have scaled to $15bn in AUM, delivering over 20% annualized returns since inception. With a planned 25% increase in headcount over the next year, they are entering a new phase of institutional expansion and operational maturity.

This newly created position will be a key member of the fund finance team, responsible for the reporting framework across their core open-ended credit strategies, as well as supporting closed-ended vehicles. The role includes oversight of fund administrators, fund performance analysis, and leading key process optimization initiatives. The firm has invested heavily in automation and technology, offering a fast-paced environment with significant growth and progression opportunities.

Working closely with the portfolio management team, you will lead performance monitoring and drive continuous improvement across finance operations. Responsibilities include full-cycle NAV oversight, review of fund financials, and ensuring accurate and timely reporting to internal and external stakeholders. As the firm scales, building a robust and scalable finance infrastructure will be crucial.

The firm fosters a collaborative and entrepreneurial culture, supported by regular team events, international retreats, and a hybrid working model (four days in-office).

We are seeking an ambitious, ACA/ACCA-qualified fund accountant (6–10 years PQE) with experience in open-ended hedge fund structures and strong exposure to credit. A proactive, commercially minded individual with a mindset for continuous improvement will excel in this high-growth, high-performance environment.
