You will be a driven and detail-oriented finance professional with:

• CA/CPA qualification and 3–5 years’ experience, ideally from a chartered accounting firm (Big 4 or mid-tier) or within financial services
• A strong grounding in financial accounting and tax compliance
• A sound understanding of investment fund structures - or a genuine passion to build expertise in this space - is essential
• Exceptional communication skills and the confidence to engage with senior stakeholders
