Belltower is empowering world-changing fund investments.

Belltower was formed in 2019 as AngelList’s native fund administrator and completed its journey to become an independent company at the end of 2023. Belltower provides fund administration services to the venture space. Our coverage spans syndicates, venture funds, and first-of-their-kind rolling funds. Our full-service fund management offering streamlines the complexity of running a fund by integrating financial reporting, tax, compliance, portfolio management, and other services that managers typically have to cobble together from multiple vendors. Our services, combined with AngelList’s software, enable us to launch and scale a fund efficiently, allowing fund managers to focus on what they do best: investing.

Since 2019, Belltower has supported 20k+ funds representing over $17B in assets under administration, leveraging AngelList’s fund admin software to power the service layer for funds launched on the AngelList platform.

About the Role:

The Management Company Controller is responsible for accounting, financial reporting, and tax compliance for management companies and general partner entities related to funds administered by Belltower. The role involves working in a fast-paced environment where priorities shift quickly, and you’ll need to manage multiple priorities effectively. This includes sanity-checking work that has been automated, preparing and reviewing work that is still manually prepared, identifying and resolving exceptions, and addressing stakeholder questions.

The Management Company Controller is responsible for helping Belltower scale through product and process design. This requires understanding the current status of our data and how it is populated, as well as understanding the relevant financial reporting and tax requirements. It then involves defining how these requirements should be applied to our data to produce outputs for financial reporting and tax compliance.

The Management Company Controller will report to the Director of Accounting. They will work closely with the fund accounting and fund tax team members, as well as members of the engineering team and other cross-functional operations teams. They will ensure the timely and accurate recording of transactions, as well as consider tax reporting implications. They will strive to develop efficient and effective functional processes and service offerings, with a strong emphasis on product automation. This is a remote role.

You Will:

• Maintain financials for management company and general partner entities of funds administered by Belltower
• Manage expenses and accounts payable function
• Coordinate and implement accounting policies, procedures, and internal control
• Prepare, review, and ensure timely filing of federal, state, and foreign tax returns, including extensions, for management company entities.
• Perform tax analysis and reconcile book-to-tax differences to support accurate compliance and reporting.
• Manage accounting and tax communications with internal and external stakeholders.
• Identify, design, and implement process and product improvements
• Stay up to date with accounting and tax law updates affecting management companies

You Have:

• 5+ years accounting/operations experience in the asset management/investment company industry, management company-specific experience preferred
• Strong foundation in partnership taxation, with experience working on operating partnerships, specialization with management companies is a plus
• Public accounting experience and CPA preferred, but not required
• Experience in managerial roles with clear leadership ability
• Proven experience in increasing efficiency through system automation
• Strong working knowledge of QuickBooks or other tools used for management company accounting
• Strong sense of personal responsibility, ownership of projects, and ability to work autonomously
