Job description

A Career with Point72's Finance Team
The Finance team provides a broad range of timely, accurate, relevant, and objective financial information, advice, and services to its business partners, with commitment to the highest professional and ethical standards. Our team offers a dynamic and collaborative environment where our colleagues can learn at a fast pace and are rewarded with advanced opportunities both within Finance and across the firm.
What you'll do
  • Own the monthly capital planning and asset allocation models across the firm's multi-strategy hedge fund complex.
  • Ensure integrity of income allocations, management and incentive fee calculations, and investor capital balances; proactively identify and resolve discrepancies before they reach downstream stakeholders.
  • Develop financial models to support strategic initiatives, new fund launches, and fund performance analysis. Partner cross-functionally with Tax, Treasury, Finance, and Operations to assess structural changes and their downstream impact on fund economics, leading cross-departmental initiatives as needed.
  • Maintain intimate knowledge of the end-to-end monthly close process, including information flows, booking methodologies, and interdependencies across Fund Accounting, Valuations, Treasury, and Operations. Step in to execute close tasks as needed and proactively identify and escalate issues arising from any stage of the close cycle.
  • Synthesize and interpret data from multiple sources to produce consolidated views of fund economics and strategy- and investor-level returns, delivering clear, well-contextualized reporting to stakeholders.
  • Contribute to regulatory reporting requirements, including investor-level disclosures and filings under FATCA/CRS, Form PF, CPO-PQR, and other applicable obligations.
  • Establish and maintain a robust control environment across income allocation, fee calculations, capital activity, and wire processing in alignment with SSAE 18 standards; serve as a key point of contact for external auditors.
  • Proactively identify risks, inconsistencies, and inefficiencies-applying critical thinking to surface issues and design scalable solutions. Lead cross-departmental projects as needed.

What's required
  • 10+ years of experience in hedge fund accounting, fund administration, or fund finance with deep exposure to multi-strategy, multi-series, and multi-class fund structures
  • Bachelor's degree in accounting, finance, or business
  • Expert-level knowledge of fund accounting principles, including partnership allocations, waterfall calculations, equalization methods, and fee crystallization mechanics
  • Strong understanding of the month-end close process and related procedures for investment funds
  • General understanding of FATCA and CRS compliance requirements
  • Advanced Excel skills and demonstrated experience building financial models
  • Proficiency with data tools such as SQL and Python for data extraction, reconciliation, and automation
  • Demonstrated experience managing or mentoring team members
  • Strong critical thinking, intellectual curiosity, and clear verbal and written communication skills with the ability to present financial data to executive stakeholders
  • Commitment to the highest ethical standards

We take care of our people
We invest in our people, their careers, their health, and their well-being. When you work here, we provide:
  • Fully-paid health care benefits
  • Generous parental and family leave policies
  • Volunteer opportunities
  • Support for employee-led affinity groups representing women, people of color and the LGBT+ community
  • Mental and physical wellness programs
