Fund Accountant (Associate, Controller, Director)

About Hanover Park

Were building the AI-native ERP that will define private markets infrastructure. This isnt an AI wrapper slapped onto legacy software - we built a proprietary general ledger accounting system from the ground up designed specifically for complex investment firms. As the system of record weve earned the trust to bundle fund administration with tools that were previously fragmented: investor portals AI-powered portfolio management KPI collection and more.

With AI context is king. And Hanover Park has all the context on our customers.

In under a year weve scaled to over $15 billion in assets under administration serving investment firms and LPs that include top-5 banks and major endowments. Were backed by Emergence Capital (first investor in Salesforce and Zoom) Susa Ventures (first investor in Robinhood and Flexport) and Lux Capital.

Stripe for payments. Ramp for expenses. Hanover Park for investments.
