Key responsibilities include the set up and ongoing maintenance of investment vehicles / capital accounts; monthly closes and ongoing maintenance of each fund's general ledger; production of quarterly financial and investor reporting; support of annual external audits forecasting fund performance; and producing management and regulatory reporting.

  • Working with key stakeholders to develop and improve upon technology and testing application updates to validate that they meet business needs
  • Optimizing the current process and contribute to the system and process improvements needed for the longer-term growth and development to manage a consistent 3-5% quarterly growth rate of investor statement count
  • Assisting in various ad-hoc projects and requests across the Fund Accounting Team and other areas to meet regular periodic reporting requirements
  • Working closely with other departments within the Firm to meet periodic investor reporting requirements and responding to various investor requests
