Job description

1–10 years of experience in fund accounting, public accounting, or fund administration...

About the Opportunity

We are partnering with a high-growth, boutique fund services platform supporting private equity and credit managers across the mid-market. The firm operates in a highly collaborative, client-facing model, providing end-to-end fund administration and operational support.

Unlike traditional administrators, teams work closely with clients and gain broad exposure across the full fund lifecycle, offering a more dynamic and hands‑on environment.

Due to continued growth, the firm is selectively hiring across multiple levels within its fund services team.

The Role

As part of the fund services team, you will support the day‑to‑day accounting, reporting, and operational functions for a portfolio of investment funds. Depending on experience, responsibilities may include:

• Preparing and reviewing capital calls, distributions, and investor allocations
• Supporting management fee calculations, carried interest, and incentive allocation models
• Assisting with quarterly and annual financial statements, including partner capital and cash flow reporting
• Coordinating audit processes and preparing supporting documentation
• Managing investor communications, including notices and ad hoc reporting requests
• Monitoring cash activity, reconciliations, and fund‑level transactions
• Participating in fund launches, closings, and onboarding activities
• Partnering directly with clients, investors, and internal teams to ensure timely deliverables
• Identifying process improvements and contributing to operational efficiencies
• (For more senior candidates) Reviewing work, mentoring junior staff, and serving as a key point of contact for clients

The Ideal Candidate

• 1–10+ years of experience in fund accounting, audit, fund administration, or in‑house fund environments
• Exposure to private equity, credit, or alternative investment structures preferred
• Understanding of the fund lifecycle, including capital activity, financial reporting, and investor allocations
• Strong analytical and organizational skills with attention to detail
• Ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast‑paced environment
• Excel proficiency; experience with fund accounting systems (e.g., Investran) is a plus
• CPA or progress toward CPA is a plus, but not required

Why This Opportunity

• High‑touch, client‑facing model with meaningful ownership
• Exposure to a variety of fund structures and investment strategies
• Collaborative team environment with strong mentorship and growth potential
• Opportunity to join a scaling platform with long‑term upside
