Accounting and Finance Career Insights

Where the Finance Role Sits

Fund accounting, management company finance, portfolio company controllership and corporate FP&A serve different stakeholders. The work can span NAV oversight, audit, valuation, tax coordination, regulatory reporting, financial planning or building a finance function.

Questions Worth Asking

Does the role own reporting or oversee an administrator? How complex are fund structures and accounting policies? Is there exposure to investment teams and senior leadership, and will the position develop into broader controllership or CFO responsibilities?

Ramax can help you evaluate the responsibilities and organizational setting of a potential move in a confidential conversation. Specific opportunities depend on current client mandates and fit.
