Senior Fund Accountant

Non-disclosed London, United Kingdom

We are looking for a Senior Fund Accountant!

This role goes beyond traditional NAV production, requiring individuals who can take ownership of complex funds, challenge external counterparts, and operate in a stakeholder‑facing, high‑accountability position.


Key Responsibilities

  • Review and oversee the end‑to‑end NAV production process, ensuring accuracy, completeness and timeliness
  • Act as a key control point between fund administrators, custodians, and internal stakeholders
  • Investigate and resolve NAV breaks and valuation discrepancies, identifying root causes
  • Perform and review cash, position and pricing reconciliations across multiple systems
  • Challenge external administrators on valuation outputs, pricing decisions and operational issues
  • Oversee and validate corporate actions, subscriptions/redemptions and fund flows
  • Support more complex valuation areas including illiquid assets, FX, derivatives or level 2/3 instruments
  • Contribute to strengthening controls, governance and audit readiness
  • Liaise directly with portfolio managers, investment teams and senior stakeholders
  • Drive improvements in process efficiency, automation and data quality



Required Experience & Profile

  • 7+years' experience in:
    • Fund accounting
    • NAV oversight
    • Valuations
  • Strong understanding of the NAV lifecycle, including pricing, cash, positions and flows
  • Experience working in a buy‑side or oversight environment (asset manager, hedge fund, allocator)
  • Demonstrated ability to own and review complex funds, not just produce NAVs
  • Proven ability to challenge external administrators and resolve issues independently
  • Experience working with multiple asset classes, including exposure to more complex instruments
  • Hands‑on use of fund accounting systems (e.g. Geneva, SimCorp, Multifonds, Aladdin)
  • Advanced Excel skills; ability to analyse, reconcile and validate financial data
  • Strong communication skills with direct stakeholder interaction
