Head of Fund Finance

Head of Fund Finance| Private Markets | London

I’m currently recruiting for a Head of Fund Accounting to join a highly regarded global investment firm as it continues to scale its private markets platform. Reporting to the COO, this is a senior leadership role with full ownership of the fund finance function across private credit funds, SMAs, closed-ended structures, and semi-liquid/evergreen vehicles.

The role will include:

• Leading and developing the private markets fund accounting team
• Owning the end-to-end NAV process across an outsourced administration model
• Overseeing financial reporting, audits, tax and regulatory deliverables
• Managing fund administrators, depositaries and auditors
• Supporting new fund launches, investor onboarding and complex transactions
• Strengthening controls and driving automation across the operating model

What they’re looking for:

• Significant post-qualified fund accounting experience
• A strong private debt, private credit, private equity or broader alternatives background
• Technical expertise across partnership accounting, waterfalls, multicurrency structures and financial reporting
• Proven experience leading and developing a team

This is a rare opportunity to take genuine ownership of a sophisticated fund accounting function and play an important role in the continued growth of an established private markets platform.
