Client Reporting Specialist - IM

About the Role

Review client-facing reporting (flash reports, quarterly statements) prior to distribution, checking for accuracy and completeness across reporting cadences. Validate performance measurement and attribution data supporting client reporting deliverables. Support the build-out and eventual implementation of the firm’s new performance reporting platform (e.g., Addepar or equivalent), including data validation and workflow design. Maintain reporting templates, checklists, and runbooks to standardize output across client segments. Coordinate with internal investment and client-service teams to ensure reporting reflects account activity accurately and on time.

Responsibilities

• Operate as an embedded, hands-on individual contributor within a lean, high-growth operations team.
• Maintain working proficiency across client-service, reconciliations, and reporting workflows beyond your primary specialization to provide backup coverage and team resilience.
• Apply deep knowledge of hedge fund and private equity mechanics (valuations, commitments, capital calls, distributions, and subscription documents) across a predominantly fund-of-funds book.
• Support a custodian-agnostic operating model spanning numerous counterparties, largely wire- and email-based rather than automated trade feeds.
• Contribute to standardizing procedures, documentation, and training materials, including scalable onboarding workflows, data templates, and operational checklists to support the client team’s growth toward eventually owning BAU independently.
• Partner with compliance and legal teams on account documentation and data needed for regulatory reporting relevant to client mandates.
• Use AI tools (e.g., Claude) and advanced Excel to improve the accuracy and efficiency of daily operations work.

Requirements

• 10–15 years of experience in client or investment operations; prior experience at an OCIO is a key differentiator (asset manager, custodian, or fund administrator backgrounds also considered).
• Direct experience with fund-of-funds structures and operations, including manual subscription and redemption processing in the absence of automated trade feeds.
• Direct experience with hedge fund and private equity valuations, commitment processing, and capital call/distribution mechanics, including the complexities around cash management associated with private equity.
• Working knowledge of subscription documents, wire processing, and fund terms (notice periods, locks, gates).
• Hands-on daily and month-end reconciliation experience, including unit reconciliations, exception management, and data quality across the Accounting Book of Record (ABOR) and downstream reporting.
• Familiarity with client performance reporting concepts (flash reports, quarterly statements) and reporting cadences.
• Experience with relevant systems (SimCorp Dimension, IVP, DealCloud, Canoe, or Addepar or comparable platforms) strongly preferred.
• Advanced Excel proficiency and comfort working with AI tools (e.g., Claude) to support daily operations.
• Strong process-improvement instincts, with experience in business requirements development, operating model design, and standardizing procedures and documentation.
• High degree of ownership, accuracy, and responsiveness across multiple concurrent workstreams.
• Comfort flexing across adjacent operations functions (client service, reconciliations, reporting) to support team coverage and resilience while anchoring in one primary specialization.
