Why Opus?

At Opus, integrity isn't just a principle. It's how we do business. As an independently owned company operating in seven countries, we've built our success by staying true to our values: questioning everything, embracing change, building not buying, winning together, and doing the right thing. Our employees see the difference - we're a certified Great Place to Work in Canada, the USA, Ireland, and the Philippines.

This Opportunity:

Are you ready to take your accounting career to the next level? Our Fund Accounting team is looking for an enthusiastic Senior Fund Accountant with 2 or more years of experience. While experience in hedge fund accounting or private equity is preferred, we welcome candidates with general accounting backgrounds who are eager to grow in the fund accounting sector. You will support the preparation of Net Asset Value packages for our private equity clients. Responsibilities will include:

  • Work independently and as part of a team with a collective responsibility to maintain the books and records of private funds, including hedge funds, prepare financial reports and investor allocations
  • Prepare NAV calculations for your assigned portfolio of clients, ensuring adherence to defined procedures, policies and internal best practices
  • Operate as a main point of contact for clients, responding to and resolving queries or escalating where necessary
  • Act as a liaison with various internal and external parties such as auditors, brokers and tax accountants
  • Leverage Opus technology to complete work in an efficient and timely manner
  • Investigate and resolve issues
  • Monitor compliance with various service agreements and adhere to all applicable legislation

A Little Bit About You

  • You have a bachelor's degree
  • You have gained 2 or more years' accounting experience in a professional environment

  • You have an interest in learning investment strategies and financial products
  • You are known for your excellent verbal communication and interpersonal skills
  • You have an aptitude for technology
  • You have a detail-oriented mindset and are inherently organized
