Muzinich's Private Markets platform spans Private Debt, Parallel Lending, Capital Solutions and Aviation Finance, with a focus on the lower-mid corporate credit market in Europe, Asia and the US. The Private Markets platform continues to scale, with strong demand from institutional LPs and growing interest from the private wealth channel via ELTIF and evergreen structures. This is an opportunity to lead the fund accounting function at a privately-owned, growth-oriented platform with a long-standing institutional credit franchise. Role purpose The Head of Fund Accounting, Private Markets leads the fund accounting function across Muzinich's Private Markets platform. The role owns oversight of the end-to-end Fund NAV process across outsourced fund administrators, with the capability to shadow and independently re-perform high-risk components together with, fund-level financial reporting, audit deliverables and the day-to-day accounting interaction with fund administrators, depositaries and auditors across a multi-jurisdictional book of funds, SMAs and semi-liquid vehicles. The Head of Fund Accounting reports to the COO, Private Markets and operates as the senior technical accounting authority for the platform. The role is oversight-led on an outsourced administration model, remaining close enough to the detail at month-end and quarter-end to challenge administrator output line by-line, while leading the team, the controls environment and continuous improvement of the fund accounting operating model.

Oversee the preparation and quality control of investor reports, including quarterly LP packs, capital account statements and ad-hoc client reporting. Own the outsourced tax programme delivered by the external tax advisor: maintain the per-entity compliance calendar across all domiciles, govern engagement and variation letters against a defined authority matrix, retain classification decisions in-house (including entity-level tax regime and FATCA \u002F CRS classifications), challenge scope and fees, and quality-review advisor deliverables. Coordinate regulatory filings, including Solvency II look-through, AIFMD Annex IV, SFDR, FATCA \u002F CRS and other jurisdiction-specific filings. Prepare Fund-Board materials related to NAVs, drawdowns, distributions and expense approvals; act as the day-to-day accounting contact for the Boards. Deliver joint-venture and bank-partner reporting (including the SMBC JV programme): monthly and board-cycle packs, waterfall and deployment reporting, and alignment to the banking partner’s group reporting calendar and governance cadence. Fund launches, structures & investor onboarding Lead the accounting workstream for new fund launches, share classes and fund-structure changes, including operating model design, chart of accounts, administrator scoping and reporting templates. Support onboarding of investors into the Funds, including operational due diligence support, side letters, transfers and assignments. Contribute to evaluation and onboarding of new fund administrators and depositaries; lead transitions where required. Controls, projects & continuous improvement Maintain and enhance the controls environment around the NAV process and fund accounting workflow, in partnership with Risk, Compliance and Internal Audit.
