We are working with a growing hedge fund based in London who are seeking an experienced Head of Fund Control to lead its fund control function.
The fund trades a broad cross-product strategy, and the successful candidate will bring deep technical expertise in instrument-level pricing, NAV production, and complex reconciliations, alongside the leadership capability to evolve into a firm-wide finance executive role.
The Role
You will take ownership of the end-to-end fund control process, ensuring accuracy, robustness, and transparency across all valuation and reporting activities.
Key responsibilities include:
- Full oversight of instrument-level pricing across a cross-product portfolio (listed and OTC)
- Ownership and review of NAV production
- Management of daily, monthly and quarterly reconciliations (P&L, positions, cash, counterparties)
- Oversight of fund administrators and external service providers
- Valuation governance and challenge process
- Enhancement of controls, policies, and operational infrastructure
- Direct engagement with Portfolio Managers, Risk, Operations and external auditors
- Leading and developing the fund control team
The Opportunity
This role is positioned as a successor-track opportunity. Over the next 2–3 years, the successful candidate will broaden their remit to include:
- Regulatory reporting
- Treasury and liquidity management
- Strategic finance initiatives
- Board and investor engagement
This is an opportunity to step into a future CFO role within a growing and ambitious platform.
Candidate Profile
We are seeking a senior fund control professional with:
- Significant hedge fund experience, ideally in a multi-asset or cross-product environment
- Deep expertise in complex instrument valuation (derivatives, structured products, financing instruments)
- Strong understanding of NAV oversight and fund accounting frameworks
- Experience managing administrators and external counterparties
- Proven leadership capability and the gravitas to operate at executive level
- A qualification such as ACA, ACCA, or equivalent (preferred)
