Fund Accounting Manager — Private Capital & Hedge Funds

Singapore | Full-time | Fund Administration

We are representing a boutique, independent fund administration and corporate services firm with an international office network, as it continues to grow its Fund Services team in Singapore. They are looking for a Fund Accounting Manager to take ownership of a portfolio of Private Equity, Venture Capital, Real Estate and Hedge Fund structures and SPVs.

This is a hands-on, client-facing role with a high degree of autonomy. You will be the main point of contact for your clients, own the financial, operational and client service results of your portfolio, and help improve the processes and systems behind the Singapore office's growth. It suits a fund accountant who wants broad, multi-strategy exposure and direct contact with clients and boards, in a firm where everyone's work counts.

What you will own

Portfolio and clients

• Manage a portfolio of fund and SPV clients across Private Equity, Venture Capital, Real Estate and Hedge Fund structures, as the main contact for fund managers, investors, banks, auditors and legal advisers.
• Lead and support client meetings with accurate data and proactive follow-up.
• Where required, hold fund or SPV directorships and take part in board meetings, presenting and explaining financial accounts and fund reports.

Fund accounting and reporting

• Prepare and review fund and SPV accounts: NAV calculations, capital accounts, management and performance fees, investor allocations, cash reconciliations and expense accruals.
• Prepare and review statutory annual financial statements under US GAAP, IFRS and SFRS, and run the audit with external auditors through to completion.
• Review investor communications, including capital call and distribution notices and investor statements.

Payments, tax and investor services

• Oversee bank accounts and the execution of authorised client payments.
• Prepare and review GST and tax filings with external tax advisers, including GST remission scheme applications where applicable.
• Oversee and guide transfer agency work: investor onboarding and KYC/AML reviews, subscriptions and redemptions, investor registers, and FATCA and CRS reporting.

Team and improvement

• Identify and put in place process, workflow and system improvements that make the Fund Services team more efficient, scalable and controlled.
• Guide junior colleagues on transfer agency and compliance matters, and share technical knowledge with colleagues across the firm's global offices.

What you will bring

• A bachelor's degree or above in Accounting, Finance, Business Administration or a related field.
• At least 7 years of fund accounting experience with a fund administrator or in an equivalent setting, including independently managing a portfolio of fund clients.
• Solid fund accounting knowledge across private capital and hedge fund structures: NAV computation, capital account maintenance and financial statements under US GAAP, IFRS and SFRS.
• Working knowledge of AML, investor due diligence, FATCA and CRS reporting, and familiarity with Singapore regulatory requirements for fund structures.
• Fluent written and spoken English, as the role works daily with clients, auditors, banks and advisers; strong client relationship skills.
• A track record of managing several client relationships and deadlines at once, working closely within a small team.

Advantageous

• Experience with fund accounting systems such as Paxus or FIS Private Capital Suite.

Why consider this role

• Ownership of a multi-asset-class book — PE, VC, Real Estate and Hedge Funds — rather than a single strategy.
• Direct exposure to fund managers, investors and boards, including directorship mandates.
• A boutique firm with an informal culture and an international network, where your work contributes directly to the business.
• Room to shape processes and systems as the Singapore office grows.
