We’re seeking a future team member for the role of Private Equity Senior Specialist: Fund/Client Accounting to join our Private Equity / Middle Office team in Dublin, Ireland.
We are recruiting for this role as a result of continued growth and mandate wins across both existing and new clients. This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced fund accounting professional to join a growing team supporting complex private equity structures in a client-facing and delivery-focused environment.

In this role, you’ll make an impact in the following ways:
- Perform cash and position reconciliations, ensuring strong discipline around break management and that appropriate supporting documentation is maintained.
- Work closely with internal teams and clients to investigate and resolve reconciliation breaks in a timely manner.
- Prepare NAVs, capital accounts, GP/LP allocations, journal entries and reconciliations, while maintaining the integrity of the general ledger and acting as both a primary preparer and secondary reviewer.
- Ensure expense budgets are established for relevant funds and maintain expense accrual accuracy at each valuation point.
- Ensure funds are priced in accordance with the applicable valuation policy and pricing matrix.
- Take ownership of core monthly and quarterly deliverables, including client reporting.
- Build strong client relationships through timely, professional and solutions-focused responses to client queries.
- Ensure adherence to internal policies, procedures and controls, maintaining high standards across checklists, governance and the overall control environment.
- Mentor Analysts and Associates on quality, controls and delivery timelines, while acting as a key point of contact for specific funds and vehicles.
- Manage audit requests for funds within your remit, ensuring timely responses, participation in audit calls and completion of actions within agreed deadlines.
- Participate in client-led and broader organisational projects and initiatives, including joining project calls, providing feedback and supporting required testing.
- Leverage AI-enabled and digital tools to enhance efficiency, strengthen controls, improve data quality and support automation and risk mitigation across fund accounting activities.
To be successful in this role, we’re seeking the following:
- Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, or the equivalent combination of education and experience, is required.
- Fund accounting experience is mandatory.
- Private Equity experience is essential.
- Knowledge of Geneva or Investran accounting systems is preferred.
- Loan experience is desirable.
Why join us?
This is a strong opportunity to join a growing business supporting both existing and new client mandates within Private Equity. You’ll gain exposure to complex fund structures, work in a visible client-facing role and contribute to a team focused on quality, control and continuous improvement. If you are looking for a role that combines technical depth, client interaction and the opportunity to help shape more innovative ways of working, we’d love to hear from you.
