Ideal Candidate Profile

We strongly prefer candidates currently working in a senior finance, CFO, fund operations or finance-and-compliance leadership role at an Alternative Investment Fund or investment management company.

* CA qualification strongly preferred.

* Approximately 12–20 years of relevant experience, with significant direct exposure to AIFs, private equity, venture capital or alternative asset management.

* Combines regulatory discipline with commercial and business judgement.

* Is comfortable operating in an entrepreneurial, high-growth environment.
