RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Fund Accounting & NAV Oversight: Own monthly and quarterly close, review NAV calculations and investor allocations alongside the fund administrator, and manage journal entries and audit support
  • Bank Debt & Credit Accounting: Calculate and reconcile loan interest accruals, SOFR and base rate resets, PIK balances, and delayed compensation

  • Administrator & Vendor Oversight: Liaise directly with HedgeServ and prime brokers to ensure prompt break resolution and corporate action execution
  • Trade Capture Support: Assist with operational processing for bank debt, liquid credit, and equity trades, including trade bookings, settlements, and agent bank notices

  • Treasury & Cash Management: Support daily cash forecasting, margin and collateral movements, FX exposures, and wire preparation

REQUIREMENTS

  • Solid product knowledge across bank debt, credit, and equities
  • Experience with a fund administrator (HedgeServ or similar) required; familiarity with Enfusion or a similar OMS/PMS is a plus
  • Bloomberg Terminal experience a plus
