Senior Accounting Associate
Atlas Search, Trenton, NJ, United States
If you’re in fund accounting and feel like you’re just turning the crank... this is the kind of role that actually changes your trajectory.
This team sits directly alongside top-tier private equity clients, giving you real exposure to how funds operate end-to-end — not just churning NAVs in the background. You’ll be hands‑on with waterfalls, allocations, investor reporting, and working closely with senior professionals who actually teach, not just delegate.
You’ll touch multiple funds across strategies, build a deeper understanding of partnership agreements, and get visibility into how decisions are made — not just how they’re recorded. It’s a strong step up for someone who wants more ownership, more complexity, and a clearer path forward.
What you’ll be doing:
Full-cycle fund accounting across multiple PE vehicles
Waterfalls, capital activity, and investor allocations
Financial reporting + working directly with client leads
Audit coordination and year-end processes
Process improvement + helping shape how the team operates
Why people make this move:
NJ location; No commute to NYC required
Strong mentorship from experienced leadership
Real client interaction (not just back‑office work)
Hybrid setup + solid work‑life balance for the space
If you’re 1-5 years into fund accounting and want something that actually builds your skillset (not just your hours), this is worth a conversation.
