We've been exclusively retained by a multi-strategy fund to find an experienced Fund Controller to join as Head of Fund Finance. The role sits in London and is ideally suited to an experienced Fund Controller on the buy-side, operating within the investment function, rather than the operations team.
The right person will have full ownership of fund accounting and financial control across credit/alternative fund structures. They will be engaged in managing reporting cycles, LP communications, administrator relationships, audits, capital activity and regulatory compliance, and help shape the function as the firm scales.
Required experience includes:
- A senior figure with a minimum of 7 years of fund finance experience from within a buy-side environment;
- Solid background in either private credit, specialty finance, or legal assets;
- Qualified accountant, either ACA, ACCA or CPA equivalent;
- Comfortable operating at a senior level with autonomy and close to senior leadership.
The role offers a good compensation structure made up of base and bonus. Importantly, the person will have a seat at the management table alongside the executive team.
