Role Overview
We are seeking a highly skilled and analytical Fund Accounting Lead to drive financial excellence across Private Equity funds. In this role, you will act as a strategic partner to Fund Controllers, providing them with institutional-grade data, transparency, and reporting. You will serve as the firms subject-matter expert on private equity fund accounting — personally owning our most complex fund structures and calculations, acting as the technical escalation point for the wider team, and ensuring data integrity, operational efficiency, and top-tier client service while actively identifying and implementing process improvements to optimize our accounting ecosystems.

- Drive month-end close workflows and review quarter-end and year-end financial statements, ensuring all supporting schedules and trial balances are accurate and audit-ready. Serve as the primary technical point of contact for external auditors and resolve complex audit inquiries directly.
- Critically evaluate existing accounting workflows, reporting cycles, and system integrations to uncover inefficiencies, manual bottlenecks, or operational risks.
- Develop scalable, automated, or streamlined standard operating procedures (SOPs) to address identified gaps and enhance delivery speed and data accuracy.
- Serve as subject-matter expert on the implementation of new accounting tools, technologies, and optimized workflows — defining requirements, running parallel testing, and documenting procedures so the team can adopt them smoothly and deliver seamlessly to clients.
- Drive leverage for our clients by deeply understanding their fund structures and strategic needs while scaling our fractional CFO and advisory operations.
- Enable data-driven decision-making for fund managers by leveraging advanced tools to deliver critical PE metrics, including real-time Internal Rate of Return (IRR), portfolio company valuation tracking, and key performance indicators (TVPI, RVPI, and DPI).
- Serve as the final quality control checkpoint for the most complex calculations and client deliverables, ensuring institutional-grade reporting accuracy and zero-defect output.
- Act as the escalation point and technical resource for other fund accountants, providing problem-solving frameworks that help them navigate complex private equity accounting scenarios and adapt to newly optimized processes.
- Monitor daily operational workflows, analyze performance variances against targets, and execute root-cause analysis to implement permanent process improvements.
- Contribute to technical interviews and deliver technical onboarding and continuous training for new team members.
