Job description

This role is for one of our clients

Compensation: $75-$110 per hour

We're building a high-quality library of investment-operations and fund-accounting work products. You'll complete self-contained operations exercises from mock files (ledgers, statements, notices) and produce the analyst deliverable for each, graded against a rubric.

What you'll do

• Reconcile ledgers vs custodian / bank statements; isolate and explain every residual difference; produce the signed-off rec with adjusting entries.
• Attribute NAV movements, flag components outside tolerance, and write the variance commentary.
• Investigate trade breaks between two systems; identify root cause, classify the break, propose the fix, and draft the investigation narrative.
• Process corporate-action events and compute entitlements per account; handle payment / transfer exceptions (repair / return / elevate); match messy merchant / vendor descriptors to a canonical registry.

You're a fit if you have

• 3+ years in fund administration or investment operations (fund accounting, reconciliations, corporate actions, trade support / middle office, or payment operations) at a fund administrator, custodian, asset manager, or bank ops.
• Hands‑on with reconciliations, NAV, trade breaks, corporate actions, or payment / settlement exceptions; strong Excel.

Nice to have

• CPA or IOC; fund-accounting systems (SS&C / Geneva / Multifonds / InvestOne); SWIFT / settlement systems.

Assessment

A ledger-vs-custodian reconciliation that must tie out; a NAV variance attribution; a trade‑break root-cause + narrative.
