Position Description:

We are seeking a Fund Accounting / Fund Administration Subject Matter Expert (SME) with strong alternatives product knowledge to support the successful onboarding of new clients onto our platform. In this role, you will lead requirements definition, data mapping and reconciliation from a fund accounting and operational perspective—ensuring migrated data supports NAV production, investor servicing, and downstream reporting. Hands-on experience with Geneva and/or Investran is highly valued. Data migration (ETL) and SQL skills remain important but are used in service of getting fund accounting outcomes right (accuracy, completeness, controls, and auditability) for each conversion.

What you’ll do:

• Act as the fund accounting and fund administration SME for alternatives conversions, ensuring migrated data supports NAV production, partnership allocations/equalisation (where applicable), investor servicing, and regulatory/client reporting;

• Lead data mapping and conversion requirements workshops with clients and internal teams, translating fund documentation and operating practices into clear migration rules and target-state processes;

• Design and implement robust reconciliation and control procedures (positions, transactions, cash, fees/expenses, capital activity, investor registers) to evidence completeness and accuracy of migrated data;

• Partner with Technology and Data teams to execute ETL activities (extract, transform, load) from legacy systems into the target platform, ensuring fund accounting logic and data quality standards are met;

• Work across Operations (Fund Accounting, Transfer Agency), Product and Technology to ensure seamless platform adoption and readiness for BAU processing post-conversion;

• Communicate fund accounting and fund administration requirements, accounting outcomes, and reconciliation sign-off clearly to clients and internal stakeholders (Fund Accounting, Transfer Agency, Operations, Product, Technology);

• Proactively identify and address data, operational, and accounting policy gaps/risks early in the conversion lifecycle, driving decisions and actions to keep delivery on track;

What you bring to the table:

• Minimum 5 years’ experience in fund accounting and/or fund administration (ideally within alternatives such as private equity, hedge funds, private credit, real estate), including involvement in conversions, onboarding, or complex operational change;

• Strong fund administration SME capability with proven client-facing experience—able to lead requirements gathering, explain outcomes, and align operating practices across stakeholders;

• Hands-on experience with fund accounting platforms, particularly Geneva and/or Investran (including data structures, key workflows, and conversion considerations);

• Experience supporting conversions/data migrations, including ETL processes (data extraction, transformation, loading) and reconciliation of large and complex data sets;

• Working proficiency in SQL for data investigation, validation, and reconciliation support (ability to query and interpret results confidently);

• Experience using Python (or similar) for data manipulation and automation is a plus;

• Familiarity with Microsoft Power Platform (Power BI, Power Automate, Power Apps) for reporting, controls, or workflow enablement is beneficial;

• Strong understanding of Transfer Agency operations (subscriptions/redemptions, investor registers, fees) and how TA integrates with fund accounting workflows during and after a conversion;

• Strong alternatives accounting domain knowledge (e.g., fee & expense processing, corporate actions, valuations/pricing inputs, capital activity and investor-level reporting);

• Demonstrated ability to design and communicate practical operating models and controls for conversions, bridging fund operations and technology teams;

• Professional certifications (e.g., CPA, CFA) are advantageous but not required;

Must-have vs nice-to-have skills:

• Strong stakeholder management and communication skills, able to explain accounting outcomes to clients and align decisions across Operations and Technology;
