Get AI-powered advice on this job and more exclusive features.

Our client, a rapidly growing financial services firm headquartered in Dallas is seeking a Senior Fund Controller to join its Real Estate Fund team. This opportunity has opened due to new business and expansion, offering high visibility and a direct reporting line to senior leadership.

This role is ideal for professionals with a background in private equity, real estate funds, partnership accounting, or financial services—especially those coming from public accounting. If you’re looking to step into a leadership position with upward mobility, a flexible work environment, and compensation that exceeds market standards, we want to hear from you.

What You’ll Do:

• Lead and manage a team of fund accounting professionals
• Serve as the main point of contact for clients, providing technical guidance on private equity fund accounting and financial reporting
• Oversee financial statement preparation and capital activity (calls, distributions, valuations)
• Review and interpret legal and fund documentation within a US GAAP framework
• Identify and implement process improvements using fund accounting systems (Investran preferred)

Why This Role Stands Out:

• Fully remote with the option to go into the Dallas office (commuting costs covered)
• Exceptional benefits: 3 weeks PTO + 2 weeks sick leave, 12 weeks maternity leave, and generous health/dental coverage (no premium increases since 2012)
• 15% annual bonus on top of a base salary of $130K–$140K
• Growth-oriented environment with frequent promotions and new client onboarding
• Strong technical leadership on the team with opportunities for continued learning and mentorship

Ideal Candidate Profile:

• 7+ years of relevant experience in fund administration, private equity, or investment accounting
• Strong background in financial statement preparation and team management
• CPA preferred (not required)
• Experience with Investran or similar fund accounting systems
• Solid understanding of partnership accounting and investment company GAAP

If you're ready to move beyond the grind of public accounting or looking for your next big step in private equity finance, this is a rare opportunity to join a high-performing, people-first team that values excellence and work-life balance.
