Our client, a leading global alternative investment manager, is seeking a Fund Controller to join its growing European Credit Finance team in London.
This is an opportunity to join a highly successful and global leader in the credit space, supporting a broad range of established and newly launched credit funds. Offering significant exposure across the organisation, the role will see you partnering with teams across Finance, Investment, Portfolio Management, Valuations, Legal, Tax and Client Solutions.

The role also involves monitoring fund liquidity, budgeting and expense analysis, reviewing and approving invoices, and overseeing relationships with external fund administrators and auditors to ensure the timely delivery of financial information.
Alongside your day-to-day responsibilities, you'll support the launch of new funds and investment products while working closely with stakeholders across multiple business areas and international offices.
