About Us
Palisade Real Assets is a mid-market real assets manager focused on investments adjacent to traditional core infrastructure, with a particular focus on decarbonisation. PRA is looking for an Investment Operations & Compliance Manager to lead the day-to-day operations and compliance activity supporting our growing investment platform. This is a broad role covering fund operations, investor reporting, valuations, capital activity, fund administration, governance and regulatory compliance.
The Job
Working closely with our Head of Finance, internal team and external advisers, you’ll:
- Lead day-to-day investment and fund operations
- Coordinate fund and investor performance reporting
- Manage investment valuations, distributions and capital calls
- Work with the fund administrator on cashflows, accruals, fund records and NAV reporting
- Support accounting, audit and tax activity
- Coordinate investor information requests and operational due diligence
- Support the establishment and ongoing management of new funds and fund structures
- Monitor regulatory developments and coordinate FCA compliance activity
- Support regulatory reporting, policies, financial promotions, governance and risk management
- Identify and implement improvements to operational processes as the business grows.
The Ideal Candidate
We’re looking for someone with significant experience in private funds, investment operations, fund operations or compliance, ideally within real assets, infrastructure, private equity or real estate. You’ll have a strong understanding of fund operations, reporting and governance, together with good working knowledge of the UK financial services regulatory framework and FCA requirements. Experience of compliance monitoring, regulatory processes, valuations, fund administration, accounting or working with external advisers would all be relevant.
Because we are a small team, the role offers real breadth and exposure. You’ll need to be comfortable taking ownership, working across functions and helping build processes and controls that remain practical and proportionate as PRA grows. This role may suit individuals currently working in Investment Operations, Fund Operations, or Compliance Manager or in a similar private funds role.
