About the roleYou'll be a fund accountant who operates with the leverage of a team ten times your size - because AI is handling the grunt work. At Hanover Park, you won't spend your career buried in spreadsheets doing work that a model can do better and faster. You'll work on engagement teams, serve as the primary point of contact for sophisticated clients, and help shape how fund accounting gets done for the next decade.
Client capacity at Hanover Park is directly gated by this team. This hire matters.
What you'll work on- Be a member of the engagement team for 5-10 clients and serve as the primary point of contact for those clients
- Manage core fund accounting workflows: Maintaining books and records, capital calls and distributions, allocations and waterfalls, and capital account statements
- Deliver financial reporting that meet client SLAs
- Communicate directly with fund CFOs, COOs, and GPs - responsiveness and clarity are non-negotiable
- Integrate into AI-assisted workflows and actively use automation to reduce time on manual tasks
- Surface process improvement opportunities to the engineering team
- Interface regularly with Chris and leadership, especially in early-stage client relationships
What we're looking forMust-haves
- Bachelor's degree in Accounting or a related field
- Fund accounting experience in alternative investments
- Fluency in core concepts: Fund structures, LPA terms, accounting and industry standards
- Technical skills including, but not limited to AI/Claude
- Strong client-facing communication skills - you're talking directly to CFOs and COOs
Nice-to-haves
- Venture capital, private equity, private credit expertise
- CPA or CPA candidate
- Big 4 public accounting background
- Genuine curiosity about AI and how it can transform fund administration workflows
This is not the role for you if:
- You're purely execution-oriented with no interest in how AI can improve your work
- You see services as lower-status than software - we disagree, and so should you
- Responsiveness and clear communication aren't strengths
Why join nowYou'll have direct exposure to some of the most innovative investment firms in the country, and you'll help define how modern fund accounting actually works. The AI infrastructure we've built means your capacity isn't limited by manual process - it's limited by judgment, and that's exactly where we want you spending your time.
We're building from scratch - there's no legacy playbook. The pace is fast and client expectations are high. If that's the environment where you do your best work, we should talk.
Hanover Park is headquartered in the Gramercy Area in New York City. This role is on-site 5 days per week.
