We are working with a high-performing Hedge Fund, helping them recruit a Head of Fund Finance (Director level). This newly created, high-impact leadership role will work closely with the CFO and CIO of the Fund.
This role offers a unique opportunity to join a well-respected hedge fund at a pivotal stage of its growth in the UAE. With the firm’s expansion, they are seeking a candidate to collaborate directly with the CIO and CFO to drive automation, enhance scalability, and elevate reporting and communication across the fund’s operations. The position will be supported by junior team members while partnering closely with the broader business and a network of external stakeholders. As a key business partner, the role will engage with internal functions, including legal, risk, tax, and performance teams, and oversee the full trade lifecycle, fund accounting, settlements, and reconciliations for complex products spanning credit, rates, equities, commodities, derivatives, and FX. A critical focus will be implementing advanced systems to streamline workflows, integrate sophisticated data visualization tools, and enhance performance reporting to support the fund’s multi-asset investment strategies.
We are looking to connect with high-calibre, entrepreneurial finance professionals with experience in a hedge fund or family office covering public markets. Candidates must be qualified (CFA, ACA, or equivalent) and have over 15 years of experience. Strong communication skills are essential, with the ability to interface directly with investment professionals.
To attract the right individual, the firm offers a competitive compensation package and a comprehensive relocation package, including full family medical coverage, annual return flights for the employee and dependents, and an education allowance for up to three children. The firm fosters a collaborative culture with high-calibre individuals, low turnover, and a strong emphasis on humility and performance.
