We are currently recruiting with various fund managers for a Fund Accountant to join their growing teams. This is an excellent opportunity for someone looking to deepen their tax expertise while gaining exposure across multiple asset classes, supported by a manager who is collaborative, hands‑on, and genuinely invested in accelerating your career in financial services.

You’ll work across a diverse portfolio of assets, supporting tax deliverables, fund reporting, and continuous improvement initiatives.

Key responsibilities include:
  • Month‑end close — prepare NAV packs, journals, accruals, and ensure accurate valuation across multiple asset classes

  • Investment reconciliations — perform daily and monthly reconciliations across custodians, administrators and internal systems
  • Cash management — monitor cash positions, liquidity requirements and funding movements
  • Unit pricing — assist with unit price calculations, variance analysis and pricing controls

  • Process improvement — contribute ideas to streamline workflows and enhance reporting accuracy

About You You’re proactive, detail‑oriented, and ready to take the next step in your career.
You bring:
  • 2–5 years’ experience in fund accounting, tax, or financial reporting
  • Exposure to various asset classes (property, credit, equities, infrastructure) beneficial
  • Strong technical capability and a willingness to deepen tax knowledge
  • A collaborative mindset and genuine interest in contributing to team success
  • Excellent communication skills and attention to detail
  • CA/CPA (completed or in progress)

  • A friendly, collaborative team culture
  • Clear pathways into senior fund accounting, tax specialist roles, or broader financial services
  • Flexibility, trust, and a leadership team that values progression
