About Hurricane Capital:Hurricane Capital is a multi-manager hedge fund platform built to support entrepreneurial investment teams with institutional infrastructure. We provide portfolio managers with the operating, financing, risk, and control functions of an established firm so they can focus on investing.
Position Overview:We are hiring a Controller to own the firm's accounting, financial reporting, and internal control processes across both the management company and the fund complex. You will work directly with senior leadership and manage the relationships with our fund administrator, auditors, tax advisors, and other service providers.
The work is a mix of hands-on execution and build-out: closing the books accurately every month, and at the same time designing the processes that let us onboard the next manager and launch the next fund without re-inventing anything.
What you'll own:Accounting and financial control
- Day-to-day accounting operations: general ledger, AP, expense management, accruals, reconciliations, and cash
- Monthly, quarterly, and annual close
- Internal controls, accounting policies, and documented procedures
- Budgeting, forecasting, and management reporting
- Review of administrator deliverables: NAV calculations, capital account statements, investor allocations, and financial statements
- Fund-level expenses, management fees, and incentive allocations
- Investor reporting and capital activity
- Preparation and review of annual audited financials
- Primary point of contact for external auditors, tax advisors, and the administrator
- Annual audits, tax filings, and regulatory reporting support
- Documentation supporting accounting judgments and reconciliations
- New fund launches, manager onboarding, and new managed account structures
- System implementations and workflow automation
- Scalable controls that hold as the platform adds strategies and entities
- Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field
- 5+ years of relevant experience across hedge funds, alternative asset management, fund administration, or public accounting (alternatives-focused)
- Working knowledge of GAAP, fund financial statement preparation, capital accounts, and investment products across asset classes
- Direct experience managing or reviewing the work of a third-party fund administrator
- Strong Excel and comfort learning new accounting and reporting systems
- Sound judgment, clear written communication, and the ability to explain a number to someone who isn't an accountant
- Comfort operating without a large team behind you, in a firm where processes are still being built
- CPA
- Experience with SS&C fund administration (Globe Op / Advent platforms), either as an administrator or on the client side
- Prior title of Controller, Assistant Controller, Fund Controller, or Fund Accounting Manager within alternatives
- Multi-manager platform, managed account, or master-feeder experience
- Management company accounting in addition to fund accounting
- Track record of improving a close process, implementing a system, or standing up controls from scratch
The Controller will have direct exposure to firm leadership, investment teams, and every external partner in the platform's finance stack. The processes you design will be the ones the firm runs on for years. If you have spent your career reviewing someone else's system and want to build your own, this is that job.
