We provide capital to businesses with attractive growth potential and align ourselves with committed management teams and entrepreneurs to help grow businesses of significant value.

Role Overview We’re looking for a Senior Associate to join our Funds Finance team, where you’ll help drive the success of our multi‑strategy, semi‑liquid private equity funds.

In this role, you’ll play a central part in shaping how the team operates day to day, with direct ownership over the monthly and quarterly accounting close and financial reporting for your funds.

It’s a role that blends hands‑on financial expertise with strategic influence, offering both challenge and opportunity in equal measure.
