Accounting Manager -Transaction Advisory

Mason Alexander

Job Description

We are partnering with a leading global investment management firm to appoint an experienced Technical Accounting professional to its New York team.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone from a Big Four Accounting Advisory, Technical Accounting or Financial Services Audit background who is looking to move into a highly commercial, transaction-focused role within alternative investments.

Unlike traditional financial reporting positions, this role offers significant variety, exposure to complex investment transactions and the opportunity to work directly with investment professionals, senior management and cross-functional teams.

The Role

  • Provide technical accounting advice on complex investment transactions across private credit, structured credit and alternative investments.
  • Assess accounting implications of new investment structures, fund seedings and external manager arrangements.
  • Work closely with Portfolio Managers, Legal, Tax, Valuations and Operations teams.
  • Research and interpret complex accounting matters under US GAAP, including investment company accounting.
  • Support accounting policy decisions and provide practical recommendations to senior stakeholders.
  • Work across a broad range of projects in a fast-paced investment management environment.

The Ideal Candidate

  • 8+ years' experience within technical accounting, accounting advisory or financial services audit.
  • Strong US GAAP knowledge and technical accounting expertise.
  • Experience within asset management, hedge funds, private credit or alternative investment structures.
  • Background in Big Four Accounting Advisory (CMAAS, FAAS, AAS, Technical Accounting) or a relevant in-house accounting policy function.
  • CPA qualification preferred.
  • Strong commercial judgment, communication skills and ability to explain complex accounting matters to non-accounting stakeholders.
  • Comfortable operating in a dynamic, transaction-led environment.

Candidates who have transitioned from Big Four into technical accounting or accounting policy roles within investment management are particularly encouraged to apply.

Location: New York City – five days per week onsite.

Please contact Dylan Philpott at View email address on ziprecruiter.com to discuss this role confidentially.
