Vice President, Fund Accounting | Private Equity | $300K–$35
Compensation: $225K–$300K Base + Bonus + Carry Participation
Location: San Francisco | Hybrid
This is not your typical fund accounting leadership role.
An elite growth equity platform managing billions in committed capital is looking for a Vice President, Fund Accounting to lead fund reporting operations across complex private equity vehicles while managing and mentoring a high-performing team.
This is a high-visibility leadership seat partnering closely with Finance, Tax, Compliance, and Deal Teams — ideal for someone who thrives in complexity, enjoys building scalable processes, and wants to operate close to the business.
What You’ll Own
✔ Lead all fund accounting and reporting operations across investment funds and GP entities
✔ Manage and mentor a fund accounting team (3–5 professionals)
✔ Oversee capital calls, distributions, management fees, offsets, and fund lifecycle accounting
✔ Drive annual audits, K-1/tax coordination, investor reporting, and fund liquidity planning
✔ Partner closely with deal teams on investment closings, cash flows, and operational workflows
✔ Improve systems, reporting processes, and operational scalability as the platform continues to grow
Qualifications:
What They’re Looking For
• 10+ years of experience across private equity fund accounting, public accounting, or investment management finance
• Strong private equity experience required (PE preferred over VC due to fund complexity)
• Management experience leading teams of 3–5+ professionals
• CPA or prior public accounting background strongly preferred
• Deep understanding of fund structures, LPAs, side letters, capital activity, fee calculations, and fund lifecycle accounting
Why This Role Stands Out
✅ $300K–$350K+ total compensation including bonus + carry participation
✅ Hybrid schedule (only 2 days onsite) + fully remote July & August
✅ 100% healthcare premiums covered for employees & families
✅ Catered meals, covered parking, team retreats & firm offsites
✅ Work alongside a collaborative, high-caliber team at a platform investing in market-leading B2B software companies
✅ Real runway for growth, leadership, and influence
