Entry Level Fund Controller Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get an entry level fund controller job?
Focus on building a foundation in fund accounting, NAV calculations, and financial reporting through coursework, internships, or accounting roles at smaller firms. Employers at this level look for candidates with a degree in accounting or finance, familiarity with Excel and accounting software, and attention to detail. Highlighting any exposure to investment vehicles or fund structures in your resume gives you a clear edge over other entry level applicants.
Which companies hire entry level fund controllers?
Companies hiring entry level fund controllers right now include Standish Management, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. At this level, hiring tends to come from asset managers, private equity firms, hedge funds, and fund administration firms that bring on junior staff to support NAV reporting and investor reconciliations.
Are there remote entry level fund controller jobs?
Yes, though most entry level positions still favor on-site or hybrid arrangements to support hands-on training. About 18% of entry level fund controller openings are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, so candidates who prefer flexibility do have options alongside the more traditional in-office roles common at this stage.
Are these new grad fund controller jobs?
Yes, many of these listings are new grad and junior roles that explicitly welcome recent graduates and candidates with little or no professional experience. A new grad-friendly posting typically calls for zero to two years of experience, accepts internship or academic project work in lieu of full-time history, and may mention on-the-job training, mentorship, or a structured onboarding program for early-career hires.
Which industries hire the most entry level fund controllers?
Entry Level fund controller roles concentrate in Consulting & Professional Services, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026.
