Melbourne, Österreich GXE Vollzeit

About us

GXE is the end-to-end platform for Investment Funds, Family Offices and Syndicates.

GXE's mission is to provide digital infrastructure and services for Trustee Services, Custody and Fund Administration. We provide investors, asset and fund managers with the tools they need to succeed and enable them to focus on their portfolios and investors whilst GXE takes care of everything else.

GXE empowers investors, fund managers and family offices with real-time visibility, efficient workflows, licensing, information security, and more.

A licensed financial services company, GXE holds Australian Financial Services Licence 460870 issued by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission. GXE welcomes clients across sectors, including corporate, credit, family offices, pension and superannuation, private equity, property, and venture capital.

We are an early-stage startup, and we offer an opportunity to join the team to help shape GXE's future.

Please note: This role is remote for now; however, we'd expect you to spend time with clients and the team in person when needed, and when we establish an office in the CBD (in the future), we'd require 2-3 days per week in the office.

Who we are looking for

We are seeking a Senior Fund Accountant to join our team.

The Senior Fund Accountant ensures our clients have a great experience and is accountable for delivering fund accounting outcomes for assigned clients. This is a "hands-on leadership role" and will lead and be responsible for client onboarding, driving client platform adoption, client upsell and renewal, and client operations. This position plays a pivotal role in the growth of GXE and will work "at the speed of the client". To succeed, you must develop great relationships with our clients and the GXE team. This will initially be an individual leader role; however, there may be an opportunity to build a small team supported by client demand and revenue growth.

Please note: This role is remote for now; however, we'd expect you to spend time with clients and the team in person when needed, and when we establish an office in the CBD (in the future), we'd require 2-3 days per week in the office.
