About the job

 

One of the world's most respected global investment platforms is hiring Fund Accounting Analysts to join its growing Dublin finance function.

 

This is not a standard fund accounting role. The breadth of exposure, the quality of the platform and the progression on offer are unrivalled in the Dublin market.

 

WHY THIS ROLE STANDS OUT

🟣 Join a global finance function covering 35+ entities across complex, multi-asset strategies

🔵 Unmatched breadth - equities, fixed income, commodities, derivatives and more

🟣 Outstanding progression in a meritocratic, high-performance culture where ambition is rewarded

🔵 Work alongside some of the sharpest finance professionals in the alternatives industry

🟣 Play a genuine role in shaping process, controls and reporting - not just executing them

 

THE ROLE

🟣 Own the month-end close process including journal entries and reconciliations across multiple legal entities

🔵 Analyse fund performance and report directly to portfolio managers - understanding whether returns reflect genuine alpha or broader market beta

🟣 Assess performance in the context of macro conditions - developing a real view on whether results are in line with expectations given what markets are doing

🔵 Reconcile and analyse positions across equities, fixed income, commodities and derivatives

🟣 Build a deep understanding of the underlying products, assets and strategies - and how a world-class investment platform actually makes money

🔵 Support fund administrators and auditors and interact across Middle Office, Operations and Investor Relations

🟣 Contribute to management reporting and drive process improvement initiatives across the function

 

CANDIDATE PROFILE

🟣 Newly qualified accountant through to 3 years' PQE

🔵 Background in asset management, private markets, fund administration or Big 4 audit with relevant clients

🟣 Exceptionally sharp, analytical and detail-oriented - you understand the numbers behind the numbers

🔵 Entrepreneurial mindset - proactive, takes ownership and drives work forward without constant direction

🟣 Thrives under pressure, motivated by delivering high-quality results in a fast-moving, demanding environment
