Fractional Controller / CFO, Fund Accounting
Finance as a Service (FaaS) | Fund Accounting and Portfolio Finance | Contractor
The Opportunity
Fund investors expect accurate allocations, clean statements, and answers that hold up under audit. Fund managers expect a finance leader who sees what is coming: capital needs, acquisition timing, and the reporting that follows each new portfolio company.
ROSE is looking for a senior fund finance leader to fill that seat for our clients. You will run fund accounting from launch to audit, direct the relationship with the fund administrator, and guide managers through the acquisition of operating companies, including companies that serve the intelligence community and the Department of War (DoW).
This is a controller-to-CFO seat. You will work alongside ROSE CFO Members, Controllers, and our Tax and GovCon teams, inside Easby, with automation and a team that handles repetitive work so your time goes to review, judgment, and advice.
What You Will Do
Fund Accounting and Reporting
- Own fund-level financial reporting, including the monthly and quarterly close, annual financial statements, and the reconciliation of fund books to administrator records
- Serve as the primary contact for the fund administrator: set expectations and deadlines, review the NAV packages, capital account statements, and allocations they prepare, challenge what does not tie, and drive open issues to resolution
- Direct the investor allocation process for private equity, hedge, and other pooled funds, including master and sub fund structures, and approve allocations before they go to investors
- Review subscriptions, redemptions, transfers, and special situations such as side pocket investments
- Review capital call, distribution, and carried interest calculations against fund documents
- Lead new fund launches and accounting system conversions, from fund documents and structure through first close and cutover
- Lead the annual audit as the main contact for external auditors, from the request list through issued statements
- Coordinate valuation inputs and support for portfolio holdings, and fund tax reporting with ROSE Tax and the fund's outside tax providers
Acquisitions and Portfolio Companies
- Support financial due diligence on acquisition targets, including review of quality of earnings work, working capital, and the target's accounting practices
- For targets that perform U.S. Government work, assess contract types, indirect rate structure, and the readiness of the accounting system against FAR, DFARS, and DCAA expectations, and identify gaps before close
- Guide purchase accounting, the opening balance sheet, and day-one finance integration for acquired companies
- Set up portfolio company reporting, including monthly packages, KPIs, and cash forecasts that roll up to a fund-level view
- Oversee GovCon finance at portfolio companies, including indirect rates, timekeeping, and incurred cost submissions, with support from the ROSE GovCon Advisory team
Leadership, Controls, and Advisory
- Advise fund principals on liquidity, capital call timing, budgets, and forecasts, and present results to investors and investment committees
- Design and enforce fund-level internal controls and accounting policies, and find gaps before they become audit findings
- Supervise, train, and develop accountants, so knowledge sits with the team and not with one person
- Work inside Easby to manage transactions, approvals, reconciliations, and reporting workflows
- Identify manual steps in allocations, reconciliations, and reporting that can be automated, and help build the replacement routine
- Collaborate with ROSE CFO Members, Controllers, Tax, and GovCon Advisory to deliver integrated financial management for each client
What Makes This Role Different
At many firms, the fund finance role ends at the administrator hand-off. At ROSE, you own what happens before it, after it, and when it goes wrong.
Your role is more than:
- Reviewing what the administrator sends and signing off
- Producing reports that look backward
- Working in isolation
You will:
- Hold the administrator accountable for accuracy and timing, and own the quality of the fund's books
- Connect fund accounting to the acquisitions that drive it, from diligence through integration
- Build routines and controls that scale as a client adds funds, investors, and portfolio companies
- Work with AI tools and automation that remove manual work, so you can focus on review and judgment
How the Role Grows
ROSE is growing its Strategic Fractional CFO practice, and we want senior finance leaders who are ready to shape it. For the right person, this role offers:
- Scope matched to your experience, from controller-level ownership of the close to CFO-level advice for fund leadership
- Access to ROSE's financial management framework, including FP&A, budgeting, forecasting, and performance advisory
- Working support from ROSE Tax and GovCon Advisory specialists
- Peer collaboration with senior ROSE CFO Members and Controllers
Who You Are
What You Bring
- 15 or more years of accounting and finance experience, with at least 8 in fund accounting, fund finance, or investor accounting for private equity, hedge funds, or similar pooled vehicles
- Prior leadership of a fund finance function or team at the controller level or above
- Hands-on depth in investor allocations, subscriptions and redemptions, master, feeder, and sub fund reporting, and capital activity and carried interest
- Direct experience working with a fund administrator, and the judgment to know when to push back
- Experience launching new funds and leading accounting system conversions
- Experience owning annual fund financial statements and working directly with external auditors
- Experience supervising and training accountants
- Clear communication with fund principals, investors, and non-finance stakeholders, without hiding behind jargon
Strong Plus
- CPA license (strongly preferred), or an MBA
- Working knowledge of investment company accounting under US GAAP (ASC 946)
- Acquisition experience, including financial due diligence, purchase accounting (ASC 805), or integrating acquired companies
- Familiarity with government contracting finance (FAR, DFARS, DCAA, indirect rates), especially for companies serving the intelligence community or DoW
- Experience supporting multiple clients or fund structures at the same time
- Curiosity about technology and openness to learning new platforms, even when the old way is familiar
- A team-first approach in the real sense: no silos, no hand-offs without context, no single points of failure

Tips for Your Remote Fund Accountant Job Search
Apply early to remote roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists remote fund accountant openings from across the U.S. in one place. Check it regularly and apply as soon as a role matches your experience, because remote postings at fund administrators and private equity firms fill quickly once they go live.
Show you can close books independently
Remote fund accounting employers want proof you don't need daily oversight. Mention specific instances where you reconciled NAV, prepared investor allocations, or met audit deadlines without in-office supervision. Concrete examples from past roles carry more weight than general claims about self-direction.
Demonstrate async communication skills upfront
Remote fund accountant teams run on written handoffs, so your application emails, cover letter, and follow-ups are already being evaluated as samples of your communication. Write clearly, use precise accounting terminology, and get to the point fast.
Get fluent in remote fund accounting tools
Remote employers prioritize candidates who can hit the ground running in platforms like Investran, Yardi, or Allvue without in-person training. Note your software proficiency explicitly on your resume and be ready to describe your workflow in each system during interviews.
Remote Fund Accountant Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a remote fund accountant job?
Focus on remote-first fund administrators, private equity firms with distributed back-office teams, and real estate fund managers that post fully remote roles. Remote employers screen hard for self-direction and written communication because you won't have a manager nearby, so highlight experience closing books independently, reconciling NAV without hand-holding, and documenting your work clearly. Proficiency in fund accounting software and a clean record of meeting audit deadlines without oversight gives you a real edge.
Which companies hire remote fund accountants?
Companies hiring remote fund accountants right now include VC Lab, Stone Coast Fund Services, and MUFG, based on current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. These tend to be remote-first fund administrators, distributed private equity back-offices, and real estate fund managers that run their accounting operations across multiple time zones.
Can you get a remote fund accountant job with no experience?
Yes, but remote entry-level fund accountant roles are harder to land because employers expect you to work independently from day one without in-office mentorship. Remote-first fund administrators and outsourced fund administration firms are your best entry points. A relevant accounting degree, exposure to fund accounting software through coursework or internships, and strong written communication skills can open the door when direct experience is limited.
Do you need a degree for remote fund accountant jobs?
Usually, yes. Most remote fund accountant roles expect at least a bachelor's degree in accounting or finance because the work involves NAV calculations, investor allocations, and audit support that employers want a formal foundation for. That said, remote employers also weigh demonstrated software proficiency, a history of accurate independent bookkeeping, and relevant certifications alongside credentials when evaluating candidates without a four-year degree.
Which industries hire the most remote fund accountants?
Remote fund accountant roles concentrate in Investment & Asset Management, based on current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Those sectors hire fund accountants remotely because their back-office functions, from NAV reporting to investor capital tracking, translate cleanly to distributed teams working across time zones.
