About the job
We’re looking for a Fund Finance Director to join a leading global alternative investment firm and take a key leadership role within a growing asset management platform. This person will serve as the primary day-to-day finance lead for a complex portfolio spanning private credit, structured investments, fund-of-funds, private investments, derivatives, and other alternative asset classes.
The platform supports insurance-related investment mandates, but prior insurance experience is not required. This is much more of an investment management finance role, and the asset classes and accounting knowledge can translate from a variety of alternative investment backgrounds.
Company/Team/ Position Highlights
Highly visible role with direct exposure to investment professionals, senior finance leadership, and cross-functional teams
Broad investment exposure across private credit, structured products, private investments, fund-of-funds, derivatives, and other complex assets
Opportunity to take real ownership of a growing finance function rather than stepping into a narrowly defined reporting role
Oversee third-party administrators while remaining close to the investments, transactions, and underlying economics
Collaborative, high-performing culture with a strong track record of internal growth and mobility
Compensation & Benefits
Generous profit sharing program, plus an additional long-term profit sharing opportunity at the Director level
Comprehensive healthcare, retirement, family support, wellness, and other employee benefits
Key Responsibilities
Serve as the primary finance lead for a diversified portfolio of alternative investments and separately managed/fund relationships
Develop a deep understanding of investment structures across private credit, structured assets, private investments, fund-of-funds, derivatives, and related strategies
Oversee third-party fund administrators and review accounting, NAVs, financial reporting, investor capital activity, and other key deliverables
Partner closely with investment operations, portfolio management, tax, legal, compliance, and other finance teams
Support valuation processes, including GAAP fair value analysis and valuation committee materials
Oversee cash management, expense allocations, audits, consolidations, and bespoke financial reporting
Review complex investment and legal documentation and ensure transactions are reflected appropriately from an accounting and reporting perspective
Build and improve scalable finance processes, controls, reporting, and infrastructure as the platform continues to grow
Qualifications
Accounting, Finance, or a related field
CPA strongly preferred; CFA or similar qualification also valued
Relevant accounting and finance experience within asset management, alternative investments, and/or public accounting
Prior Big 4 or other large public accounting experience strongly preferred
Strong understanding of investment accounting, financial reporting, valuations, and complex investment structures
Experience overseeing third-party fund administrators and working across multiple internal stakeholder groups
