Qualifications

• 5–7 years of experience across operations, finance, and/or fund accounting, ideally at a private equity firm or another alternative asset manager.
• Investment banking or private equity experience strongly preferred; exposure to a fund launch or the build-out of a new strategy is a significant plus.

• Monitor industry and sector allocations, deployment pacing, and portfolio construction against the fund's mandate, surfacing exposure and concentration considerations to the deal teams and investment committee.

• Build and maintain the technology required for portfolio monitoring and KPI reporting across portfolio companies, and prepare performance and track-record materials for LPs, the investment committee, and firm leadership.
• Partner with Human Capital, Finance, Legal, Compliance, Tax, and Investor Relations to build and maintain the operating infrastructure required to support a newly launched strategy.
• Serve as the primary interface to fund accounting and fund administration: capital calls, distributions, NAV and valuation packages, waterfall and carried-interest calculations, and fund-level financial reporting.
• Design process and implement systems where none exist today, translating ad-hoc workflows into repeatable, scalable operations.
• Function as a utility player on ad-hoc strategic, operational, and transaction-related projects across the platform.
