Fund Controller/Special Situations Investment Manager
The Opportunity
We are partnering with a rapidly growing special-situations investment manager seeking an experienced Fund Controller to join its London-based finance function. With offices in London, New York and Hamburg, it invests across a deliberately broad mandate that includes private credit, infrastructure, corporates, listed securities and hard assets.
They focus on complex situations where businesses or assets need liquidity, operational funding, or tailored capital solutions.
The Role
Reporting directly to the Finance Director, the Fund Controller will sit at the centre of the firm’s fund finance activities. This is a high-ownership position offering direct exposure to senior leadership, investment professionals, external advisers and the underlying fund structures.
