Assoc/VP, Assistant Controller

Who You Are:

The ideal candidate will have 3-7 years of experience working in a mix of public and private accounting focusing on venture capital, private equity, or other closed-end fund structures. This person will sit on the asset management team with primary responsibility for Galaxy’s venture capital and closed-end fund products, with the opportunity to broaden their responsibilities and support our liquid hedge fund products as needed.

This role will contain a unique opportunity to work on both the Finance and Operations teams and get involved in all middle and back-office functions of the funds. Role will be much broader than a standard accounting role and include treasury, capital call and distribution execution, investment closing support, valuation support, automation, and various other operational functions.

What You’ll Do:

• Review quarterly and annual fund NAVs, capital account allocations, and partners' capital account statements across Galaxy's venture capital and closed-end fund products.
• Manage the capital activity lifecycle — calculate and issue capital call and distribution notices, and track limited partner commitments, contributions, distributions, and unfunded balances.
• Manage fund cash, expenses, and treasury, including funding of portfolio company investments and coordination of closing mechanics.
• Prepare the quarterly Schedule of Investments and assemble valuation committee materials, coordinating with third-party valuation providers on portfolio company fair value marks under ASC 820.
• Calculate and review management fees, carried interest, and distribution waterfalls in accordance with each fund’s limited partnership agreement.
• Assist with product development, fund launches, and the formation of SPVs and co-investment vehicles.
• Work with internal legal/compliance and the fund administrator, respond to investor inquiries, and support Operational Due Diligence sessions.
• Maintain investment-level records across the portfolio, including cost basis, follow-on rounds, conversions, warrants, and realizations.
• Monitor compliance with limited partnership agreements and side letters, including limited partner reporting obligations and information rights.
• Coordinate the annual audit and tax process with fund administrators, auditors, and tax preparers, including review of partner K-1s.
• Provide support to Galaxy’s liquid hedge fund products as needed, including NAV review and other operational work.
• Embrace and champion the thoughtful adoption of AI to improve team performance and business outcomes.
• Leverage AI tools (e.g., generative AI, automation platforms, data copilots) to improve productivity, decision-making, and output quality in your day-to-day work.

What We’re Looking For:

• 3-7 years of experience with a strong background in accounting
• Experience with venture capital, private equity, or other closed-end fund accounting, including capital calls, distributions, and capital account allocations
• Experience coordinating with third party fund administrators
• Experience in managing audits of closed-end fund structure
• A working knowledge of limited partnership agreements, including management fee, carried interest, and waterfall provisions
• Familiarity with fair value measurement (ASC 820) for level 3 illiquid, privately held investments

Bonus Points:

• CPA preferred
• Experience in digital assets/crypto currencies
• Experience with venture-stage instruments such as SAFEs, convertible notes, token warrants, and direct token investment
• Experience with SPVs and co-investment vehicles
• Experience in client service or communicating directly with stakeholders

What We Offer:

• Competitive base salary and discretionary bonus
• Hybrid/Flexible Working Arrangements
• Flexible Time Off (paid)
• 3% 401(k) company contribution
• Company-paid health and protective benefits for employees, partners, and other dependents
• Generous paid Parental Leave
• Competitive family planning benefits for US employees
• Opportunities to learn about the Crypto industry
• Smart, entrepreneurial, and fun colleagues
• Free daily snacks and weekly breakfasts/lunches
