About the Role

The Company is in search of an Associate Vice President for its US Public Credit accounting team. The successful candidate will be tasked with the day-to-day accounting and oversight of publicly traded business development companies. This includes the preparation of US GAAP financial statements for various SEC filings, quarterly footnote and MD&A disclosures, and board reporting. The role also involves managing relationships with internal resources, fund administrators, and auditors to ensure all deadlines are met, as well as overseeing the monthly NAV packages and participating in the close process. The AVP will have a high level of interaction across the organization, including with portfolio managers, investor relations, legal, compliance, operations, tax, FP&A, and financial reporting.

Applicants for the AVP position should have a Bachelors degree in accounting, finance, or a related field, with a CPA certification preferred. A minimum of 6-9 years' experience in fund accounting, particularly with a focus on bank debt, is required. The ideal candidate will have a background in public accounting, with Big 4 experience being a plus, and familiarity with Advent Geneva, Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, or Onestream software. The role demands a strong understanding of U.S. GAAP, accounting principles, financial instruments, and regulatory requirements, as well as excellent problem-solving, analytical, and communication skills. The candidate should be a highly motivated team player, capable of working independently in a fast-paced, high-growth environment, and be adept at managing multiple tasks and deadlines.
