• Platform & Reporting Development

• Provide domain expertise on how family offices expect to view data across trusts, holding companies, and pooled vehicles.
• Family Office Advisory Support
• Participate in client onboarding and scoping discussions, providing insight into best practices for achieving maximum data intelligence from investment operations and accounting data.
• Support product and client success teams in interpreting accounting and investment workflows across diverse geographies and tax jurisdictions.
