Key Responsibilities
- Fund Accounting & Oversight: Oversee the day-to-day financial management of Luxembourg-domiciled closed-end private credit funds, master-feeder structures, and associated SPVs.
- Third-Party Provider Management: Manage relationships with external administrators, depositaries, auditors, and tax advisors to ensure precise and timely NAV delivery.
- Credit Operations Support: Partner with the deal and operations teams to review credit facility draws, capital calls, distributions, and complex fee calculations (including management fees and carried interest).
- Financial Reporting & Audit: Review quarterly and annual financial statements prepared under Lux GAAP / IFRS, ensuring seamless management of the year-end audit process.
- Treasury & Liquidity Management: Monitor fund liquidity, manage bridge facilities, and oversee cash forecasting to support ongoing deal flow and fund expenses.
- Regulatory & Tax Compliance: Ensure strict compliance with Luxembourg regulatory frameworks (AIFMD, CSSF regulations) and support FATCA/CRS and tax reporting requirements.
- Note: Because this is a contract role covering for a team focused on high-priority projects, the successful candidate must be a self-starter who can "plug and play" with minimal supervision.
- Experience: Minimum of 5-8 years of post-qualification experience within private debt, private equity, or alternative asset management (direct credit fund experience is highly preferred).
- Technical Expertise: Strong working knowledge of closed-end fund structures and Luxembourg GAAP / IFRS.
