Fund Accountant - Atlas Fund Administration (Remote)

About Atlas & Allocate

Atlas Fund Services, LLC is a subsidiary of Allocate and operates as the fund administration business unit. We founded Allocate with the simple mission of making investing in top-tier private alternatives within the technology sector more accessible for a broader set of investors.

We believe that the mark of healthy and efficient markets requires the financial inclusion of all qualified market participants.

However, despite significant demand, investing in private technology-focused alternatives is more complex than ever as discovery, investment diligence and selection, access, and deal execution all serve as substantial roadblocks.

With Allocate, investors can find, invest (through Allocate SPV feeders), and track highly vetted opportunities through our turnkey digital platform in a single easy-to-use interface.

Essential Values & Culture

• Providing our clients with a world class experience is our number one priority. We obsessively search for ways to improve the experience for our clients and partners. This requires extraordinary response times, proactivity, and ensuring that everything we do, from product strategy to offline communications is top-tier client experiences.
• Challenge convention: Instead of detailing all the reasons why an idea may not work, we constantly question things to determine how a viable idea may be put into motion.
• Commitment to continuous improvement: We find ways to personally scale each day by pushing ourselves up the learning curve.
• Meritocracy, not politics: We place utmost value on results and rewarding through merit, not to reward actions driven by political agendas or behavior.
• Civil Discourse is embraced: We believe open, intellectually curious conversations are required to consistently arrive at the best decisions. Respect is paramount in our dealings with one another, but our mission is always to get the right answer collectively, not to be right.
