About the job
We’re looking for a Vice President of Corporate Finance to take on a major leadership role within the management company of a leading global alternative investment firm. Reporting directly to the U.S. Controller, this person will help lead the firm’s U.S. Corporate Finance organization, with broad ownership across accounting and reporting, finance operations, controls, and transformation.
This is much more than a traditional controllership role. The VP will have visibility across the organization, work closely with senior finance and business leadership, and help shape how Corporate Finance operates as the firm continues to grow. It’s an opportunity for an experienced finance leader to inherit a strong platform while still having the mandate to improve processes, develop people, strengthen controls, and drive greater use of technology, automation, and AI.

Partner closely with the U.S. Controller in leading the day-to-day U.S. Corporate Finance organization
Oversee accounting and reporting across the management company, affiliated entities, balance sheet investments, and a regulated broker-dealer

Provide leadership across finance operations including AP, AR, expense allocations, invoicing, treasury, payments, and related processes
Develop and mentor finance leaders and their teams across both onshore and offshore operations
Partner across Finance, Tax, Legal, Compliance, Internal Audit, FP&A, and other business groups
Evaluate processes and controls, identify areas of risk or inefficiency, and drive meaningful improvements
Lead transformation initiatives involving technology, automation, AI, and more scalable ways of working
Qualifications
Accounting, Finance, or a related field
CPA required
Progressive accounting and finance experience, including significant leadership responsibility
Strong background in U.S. GAAP, consolidated financial reporting, and complex accounting environments
