Fund Team reporting to VP of Fund

Are you a highly detail-oriented and organized individual with a foundational background in accounting? Do you thrive in environments that require the completion of structured, recurring tasks, and excel at meeting strict deadlines? As the Fund Operations Analyst, you will support the crucial back office functions of the most active venture firm in the Southwest.

You will work closely with Capital Factory’s tenured fund and finance teams to ensure our family of venture funds meet their reporting and financial obligations, keep an accurate record of all investment positions and activity, and support the contracting process with new portfolio companies in our unique All Access Fund.

Requirements

What you will do…

  • Support the preparation of fund financial statements, accounting workbooks and capital accounts as well as organize their distribution to all limited partners.
  • Coordinate and support the preparation of annual tax documents and their secure, timely distribution to all limited partners.
  • Track and update all data and records on all investment positions and fund activity, converting the data into accurate fund performance metrics for internal and external distribution.
  • Support the calculation and preparation of fund distributions to limited partners.
  • Prepare fund level budgets, track the flow of cash and process invoices in coordination with our finance team.
  • Prepare the correct terms for contracting with our new portfolio companies. Issue DocuSigns for execution of our engagements and track the deals to closing. Maintain proper records of the deals as they close and onboard onto our platform.

You'll know you're successful if...

  • Quarterly and annual deliveries of fund financials and capital accounts done within 45 days of the reporting period close.
  • Tax documents are delivered by April 1.
  • All limited partners questions related to reporting, document access and taxes are responded to by the next business day. They know to reach out to you directly because they know that you will have these answers before anyone else.

  • All invoiced expenses and fund related cash flows are accurately tracked and prepared for approval within 48 hours.
