Operational Risk & Controls Manager - Acquisitions

We are working on a search for an Operational Risk & Controls Manager to join the complex investments platform of a leading global alternative investment firm in Boston. This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys owning complex operational processes, strengthening control environments, and partnering across finance, legal, compliance, auditors, custodians, fund administrators, and other third-party providers.
It’s an ideal next step for someone with fund admin or Big 4 audit experience who wants to move beyond reporting and take on broader ownership within a top-tier investment environment.

The team is looking for someone experienced and polished, but still hands-on enough to manage audit cycles, support fund launches and wind-downs, oversee custody and vendor processes, and drive control remediation and process improvement initiatives from start to finish. Strong candidates will likely come from alternative asset management, fund administration, operational risk, internal controls, audit, or a similar financial services environment.

• Boston-based hybrid role with 3 days in office and 2 days remote.
• Manager-level opportunity supporting a global complex investments platform.
• Compensation includes a competitive base salary, 20% annual bonus target, and profit sharing
• Broad ownership across fund audits, operational controls, custody processes, vendor oversight, business continuity, fund launches, wind-downs, and special projects.
• Strong fit for someone with 6+ years of experience across alternative investments, fund operations, risk, controls, audit, custody, or fund administration.
• Ideal profile has strong project management skills, sound judgment, excellent communication, and the ability to independently manage multiple complex work streams.
• Additional upside includes excellent healthcare and retirement benefits, generous family support programs, office perks, internal mobility, and long-term career growth.
