  • Working knowledge of investment accounting or securities accounting concepts.
  • Understanding of fixed income investments and financial instruments; derivatives exposure a plus.

  • Ability to manage multiple priorities in a deadline-driven environment.
  • Strong attention to detail and problem-solving skills.
  • Effective communication and collaboration skills across cross-functional teams.
  • Ability to take ownership of work and follow projects through to completion.
Minimum Requirements:
  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting from an accredited university (Master's a plus)
  • 3+ years of accounting experience.
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Excel and Microsoft Office Suite.
  • Technically proficient with accounting systems and an understanding of system and process flows.
  • Ability to work effectively with cross‑functional teams inside and outside the organization.
Preferred Qualifications:
  • Investment or insurance accounting experience
  • Exposure to insurance industry accounting, including Statutory reporting.
  • Experience with PAM or a similar investment accounting system.
  • Certified Public Accountant (CPA) designation or progress toward CPA.
  • Experience supporting system implementations, process improvements, or automation initiatives.
