  • Investigate and resolve discrepancies, escalating where appropriate
  • Ensure internal policies, procedures and checklists are consistently followed

Client and stakeholder management

  • Act as a key point of contact for client queries relating to your portfolio
  • Build strong working relationships with registrars, custodians and internal teams
  • Communicate proactively to avoid surprises and keep stakeholders informed

Team support and development

  • Review the work of junior fund accountants and provide constructive feedback
  • Support the onboarding and training of new team members
  • Share technical knowledge and act as a mentor within the team

  • CA/CPA qualified, or well progressed towards qualification
  • 5+ years' experience in fund accounting or financial services
  • Strong technical knowledge of NAV calculations, unit pricing and fund reporting
  • A keen eye for detail and solid understanding of risk and compliance concepts
  • Confidence reviewing the work of others and providing clear, constructive feedback
