Fund Accountant Jobs in Florida: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a fund accountant in Florida?
Most fund accountant roles in Florida require a bachelor's degree in accounting or finance as a foundation. Florida does not mandate a state-specific license to work in fund accounting, but earning or actively pursuing CPA licensure through the Florida Board of Accountancy significantly strengthens candidacy. Employers consistently expect familiarity with fund structures, NAV processes, and reconciliation workflows, so candidates who build those skills through coursework, internships, or adjacent accounting roles move into the field most directly.
How much do fund accountants make in Florida?
Fund accountants in Florida earn a median of about $79,250 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $50,280 for the lowest 10% to over $131,930 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire fund accountants in Florida?
Employers hiring fund accountants in Florida right now include BNY, Citi, and SS&C, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Florida's concentration of hedge fund administrators, private equity firms, and global custodians in Miami and Tampa means demand across both boutique and institutional employers remains consistent throughout the year.
Which Florida cities have the most fund accountant jobs?
Lake Mary, Tampa, and Boca Raton have the most fund accountant openings in Florida. Miami dominates because of its density of hedge funds, fund administrators, and Latin American investment operations, while Tampa draws demand from regional asset managers and back-office centers, and Jacksonville's growing financial services sector supports a steady base of fund accounting roles at larger institutions.
Are there remote fund accountant jobs in Florida?
Yes, and more than many finance roles allow. About 100% of fund accountant openings tied to Florida are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, reflecting the desk-based and analytical nature of the work. The tasks most commonly performed remotely include NAV review, investor reporting, and reconciliation, while roles that require direct interaction with portfolio operations or client onboarding tend to stay on-site.
How can I get hired as a fund accountant in Florida with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is applying to junior fund accounting analyst or fund accounting associate roles at Florida-based fund administrators such as Citco, SS&C Technologies, or NAV Consulting, which regularly bring in candidates from general accounting or audit backgrounds. Lateral moves from public accounting, bank reconciliation, or brokerage operations are common starting points. Pursuing CPA licensure through the Florida Board of Accountancy and gaining exposure to platforms like Geneva or Investran through coursework or certification programs noticeably improves competitiveness for these entry-level openings.
Where can I find and apply to fund accountant jobs in Florida?
You can find and apply to fund accountant jobs in Florida on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings tied to the Florida market. Search the listings, find the roles that match your background and goals, and apply directly to the ones that fit.
