- Ensure accurate and timely submission of statutory and regulatory financial reports, including GST filings.
- Support KYC and AML review requirements, annual statutory filing and sundry regulatory reporting.
- Streamline investment reporting processes and improve data integrity across the reporting cycle.
Requirements for the Senior Fund Accountant:
- Degree in Accounting, Finance, Business or Economics.
- Minimum of 5 to 7 years of relevant experience in fund accounting, investment reporting or a related area.
- Working knowledge of investment products, financial markets and industry regulations, with familiarity across equities, fixed income and alternatives.
- Ability to interpret complex data sets and draw meaningful conclusions from them.
- Comfortable managing competing deadlines in a fast-paced environment.
- Track record of identifying operational inefficiencies and acting on them.
