• Participate in the review of departmental procedures and policies, and support the team in adhering to them
• Contribute to and lead cross-functional projects as the business continues to grow and evolve

What We're Looking For

• You are a confident, collaborative leader who brings both strategic thinking and hands-on client focus. You are comfortable engaging at the most senior levels while also supporting your team's day-to-day success. You likely bring:
• A strong background in financial services, with experience in fund accounting, operations, or product control environments
• Proven experience leading and developing teams, with a track record of building high-performing, engaged groups
• The ability to manage complex client relationships with professionalism, empathy, and clarity
• A sound understanding of risk management principles and how to apply them in a fund services context
• Excellent communication skills — you can adapt your style whether you're presenting to a client, mentoring a team member, or navigating a complex issue
• A proactive, growth-oriented mindset with the ability to identify opportunities and act on them

Experience & Skills

• Degree-level education (bachelor's or master's) or equivalent professional qualification
• Significant experience in financial services, ideally within fund accounting, operations, or a related discipline
• Demonstrated experience managing and developing teams at a senior level
• Familiarity with private equity fund structures is an advantage

Ways of Working

In this role, you will operate with a high degree of autonomy while remaining closely connected to clients, colleagues, and senior leadership. You will collaborate across business lines — from operations and technology to compliance and business development — and will be a visible, trusted voice both internally and externally. Decision-making is informed, considered, and client-centred, and you will be empowered to shape how the team works and grows.
