Why This Role Stands Out

This remote role offers a competitive hourly rate and the opportunity to hone your expertise in investment operations and fund accounting through engaging, practical exercises. You'll thrive here if you have 3+ years of experience in fund administration or investment operations and enjoy diving deep into reconciliations, NAV attribution, and trade break investigations. Apply to gain valuable experience and contribute to a high-quality work product library.

Job Description

This role is for one of our clients

Compensation: $75-$110 per hour

We're building a high-quality library of investment-operations and fund-accounting work products. You'll complete self-contained operations exercises from mock files (ledgers, statements, notices) and produce the analyst deliverable for each, graded against a rubric.

What you'll do

  • Reconcile ledgers vs custodian / bank statements; isolate and explain every residual difference; produce the signed-off rec with adjusting entries.
  • Attribute NAV movements, flag components outside tolerance, and write the variance commentary.
  • Investigate trade breaks between two systems; identify root cause, classify the break, propose the fix, and draft the investigation narrative.
  • Process corporate-action events and compute entitlements per account; handle payment / transfer exceptions (repair / return / escalate); match messy merchant / vendor descriptors to a canonical registry.

You're a fit if you have

  • 3+ years in fund administration or investment operations (fund accounting, reconciliations, corporate actions, trade support / middle office, or payment operations) at a fund administrator, custodian, asset manager, or bank ops.
  • Hands-on with reconciliations, NAV, trade breaks, corporate actions, or payment / settlement exceptions; strong Excel.

Nice to have

  • CPA or IOC; fund-accounting systems (SS&C / Geneva / Multifonds / InvestOne); SWIFT / settlement systems.

Assessment A ledger-vs-custodian reconciliation that must tie out; a NAV variance attribution; a trade-break root-cause + narrative.

Details Contract, hourly (~15 hrs/week), remote, US-based. Pay $75-110/hr based on experience.

We consider all qualified applicants without regard to legally protected characteristics and provide reasonable accommodations upon request.
