Our client is looking for a Fund Administrator to own the operational backbone of their capital raise and work directly alongside the CFO on its execution.

The Fund Administrator will be the central coordination point for the raise - the person who keeps investors, distributors, and compliance workflows moving in sync. The role combines precise back office processing with confident, client-facing coordination, and offers significant scope to grow with the raise and the CFO’s mandate.

• Familiarity with distributor and IFA channel operations (advantageous).
