Vice President Private Equity Fund Accountant

A leading global fund administrator is seeking a Vice President of Private Equity Fund Accounting to oversee client delivery, team management, and financial reporting for a portfolio of top-tier private equity and venture capital clients. This role is for a seasoned fund accountant who can move fluidly between technical detail and strategic oversight—someone who’s equally comfortable reviewing complex allocations and sitting across the table from CFOs. You’ll join a growing platform known for pairing institutional-grade rigor with a modern, technology-driven service model. What You’ll Do Lead the day-to-day fund accounting operations for multiple private equity and venture capital clients. Oversee capital calls, distributions, management fee calculations, and waterfall allocations. Review and approve quarterly and annual financial statements in accordance with US GAAP and partnership agreements. Coordinate audit and tax processes with external auditors and advisors. Supervise, train, and mentor a team of accountants—ensuring quality, accuracy, and adherence to deadlines. Partner closely with client CFOs, controllers, and portfolio teams to provide insights on fund performance, allocations, and investor reporting. Manage NAV production, investor allocations, and carry calculations for complex structures. Identify opportunities to streamline processes, enhance controls, and implement automation across accounting workflows. Collaborate with internal technology and product teams to continuously improve reporting systems and client deliverables. What You Bring 7–10+ years of private equity or fund accounting experience, ideally within a fund administrator or asset manager. Strong knowledge of investment structures, capital activity, waterfall modeling, and consolidation. Familiarity with Investran, eFront, Yardi, or similar fund accounting platforms. Deep understanding of US GAAP, partnership accounting, and financial reporting standards. Exceptional leadership and communication skills—able to manage teams, clients, and deadlines with precision. CPA designation or progress toward one strongly preferred. Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field. Why It’s Worth a Conversation Lead a team managing flagship clients across multi-billion-dollar private equity funds. Join a growing firm that values innovation, accountability, and long-term client relationships. Exposure to senior-level client interaction and strategic decision-making. Competitive base salary, performance-based bonus, and a culture built around professional growth and excellence. #J-18808-Ljbffr The Emerald Recruiting Group
