About the role

Fund Accountant — Fully Remote Private investment firm · Remote (DC Metro Area) · $60,000–$80,000 base + Bonus + Deal Co-Investment Most fund accounting jobs at this level give you one slice of the close and keep you there. This isn’t that. You’d sit at the center of how a private investment firm actually runs — the general ledger, the wires, the distributions, and the investor records behind a portfolio of roughly 25 companies. And unusually for a seat at this level, you’d have the ability to invest your own capital alongside the firm in its deals. The details Fully remote, but must be in the DC/Maryland/Virginia area. They may open an office in the future requiring 1-2 days/week in office.$60,000–$80,000 base, plus bonus Co-investment — the opportunity to put your own money into the firm’s deals What you’d own Day-to-day general ledger and fund accounting Wires, capital calls and investor distributions — a significant part of the role Investor onboarding, subscription documents and capital account records Audit-ready documentation across deals, closings and quarterly statements Regulatory support including Form D tracking and Blue Sky filings Making all of the above faster and cleaner — automation and process cleanup are genuinely welcomed here What they’re looking for Bachelor’s degree in Accounting (Finance or Economics with strong accounting coursework also works) Early-career, with fund accounting, fund administration, venture capital, private equity or public accounting experience especially relevant Strong Excel and genuinely exceptional attention to detail — you’ll be handling wires and legal documents Comfortable talking directly with investors by email, phone and video Hungry. This is built for someone who wants to grow into more, not someone looking to do the same task for a decade. Why people take this job Fund administration teaches you one client’s slice. This teaches you the whole machine — how capital gets called, how money moves, how deals close, and how investors actually get paid. That’s a skill set that travels.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
