Job Title
Autumnal Partners has been exclusively retained to support a established, London-based hedge fund investment specialist with a multi-decade track record in fund-of-hedge-funds investing. They are looking for an experienced Interim Financial Controller to cover a 12-month maternity leave, taking primary responsibility for corporate-level financial reporting across statutory accounts, management reporting, budgeting/forecasting and regulatory filings.
This is a corporate-side FC role — familiarity with fund structures is a plus, but the focus is on the business itself rather than fund/NAV accounting.
