Accounting Manager

About Belltower Fund Group:

Belltower was formed in 2019 as AngelList’s native fund administrator and completed its journey to become an independent company at the end of 2023. Belltower provides fund administration services to the venture space. Our coverage ranges from syndicates to venture funds to first-of-their-kind rolling funds. Our full-service fund management offering abstracts away the complexity of running a fund by integrating the financial reporting, tax, compliance, portfolio management, and other services that managers typically have to cobble together from multiple vendors. Our services, combined with Angellist’s software, enable us to efficiently launch and scale a fund, allowing fund managers to focus on what they do best: investing.

Since 2019, Belltower has supported 20k+ funds representing over $16B in assets under administration, leveraging AngelList’s fund admin software to power the service layer for funds launched on the AngelList platform.
