The company combines the innovation and speed of a technology startup with the sophistication of the financial services industry, creating a highly collaborative environment where talented professionals can make a meaningful impact while working directly with senior leadership.About the RoleWe are seeking an experienced Senior Business Operations & Investment Operations Specialist to become the operational backbone of a rapidly growing investment management firm.
This is a highly cross-functional role supporting business operations, recruiting, people operations, executive support, investor relations, finance, fund operations, and AI-driven process automation.
The ideal candidate is an experienced operator who thrives in fast-paced startup environments, enjoys building scalable systems, and has a strong understanding of finance, accounting, and investment operations. Rather than simply maintaining processes, you'll continuously improve them through automation and AI while supporting critical business and fund operations.What You'll DoRecruiting & People Operations
  • Run the full recruiting cycle: sourcing coordination, scheduling, candidate communication, and interview logistics
  • Own onboarding and offboarding end to end, shaping a great candidate and employee experience as we grow
  • Keep HR systems, records, and people processes accurate and current
  • Be a culture carrier for a distributed team, the connective tissue that keeps everyone connected
Business Operations
  • Keep the firm's operating cadences running (Monday kickoff, weekly reviews, Friday close, QBRs) and improve them over time
  • Own calendars and cross-functional coordination so leadership never loses time to friction
  • Administer vendors, subscriptions, and tools, consolidating and automating where it saves time or money
  • Help build the reporting and metrics that feed our weekly and quarterly cadences, automating the data pulls behind them
  • Document and continuously improve internal playbooks, flagging what should be automated
Finance, Fund Ops & Accounting
  • Manage company expenses and the corporate-card program (Ramp): categorization, receipts, and policy adherence
  • Coordinate vendor invoices, payment scheduling, and reimbursements
  • Support payroll, equity, and records administration, and help the bookkeeper and Head of Ops keep clean financials
  • Partner with the Head of Ops on fund operations, taking on the hands-on, delegable tasks and running them cleanly end to end
  • Review monthly NAVs ahead of the Head of Ops's sign-off, coordinating with the fund administrator (Fundviews) on month-end and helping reconcile positions and cash
  • Process investor subscriptions, redemptions, and transfers, and keep KYC/AML onboarding and the investor register accurate and current
  • Help run capital calls, distributions, and fee calculations, and coordinate the related payments
  • Pull fund control-book data to help produce quarterly fact sheets and investor performance reporting
  • Support fund formation during launches: open accounts, register with the relevant authorities, and collect and review documentation, flexing to all-hands when a new fund launches
 Systems Ownership & Automation
  • Master our tool stack and become the firm's go-to expert, then optimize each system to how we actually work
  • Treat every process you own as a candidate for automation: spot repetitive work and redesign it to run with AI and agentic workflows
  • Build and prototype your own automations and agents (with the Chief of Staff & Agents) to take recurring work off the team's plate
  • Track impact, time saved and reliability, as work moves from manual to automated
Investor Relations & Executive Support
  • Triage and manage the IR inbox: route, prioritize, and follow up so nothing slips
  • Act as first-line on investor questions, responding in Equi's voice and escalating what needs the Head of Ops or IR
  • Coordinate IR logistics and quarterly board materials: prep, scheduling, and follow-through
  • Manage travel and itineraries for the founders and leadership team
  • Track action items across leadership workstreams so nothing stalls
Sales & Marketing Support
  • Support outbound campaigns and sequences: draft and refine messaging to ~80% and hand off to the Head of Sales
  • Help improve communication and outreach quality across channels
Tools & SystemsYou don't need to know every tool on day one, but you should be comfortable learning modern software quickly.
  • Google Workspace: email, calendar, and docs
  • Slack: internal communication
  • Notion: knowledge base and documentation
  • Linear: project and issue tracking
  • Ashby & Pin: recruiting and sourcing
  • HubSpot: CRM and outreach
  • Ramp: expenses and corporate cards
  • Fund administration & NAV (e.g., Fundviews): fund-operations coordination and reporting
  • Claude, Codex, and agentic AI tools: automation, drafting, and workflow
Who You AreWe're looking for a seasoned operator who blends exceptional organization, systems fluency, and a builder's instinct for automation.Required
  • English: C2 / near-native proficiency, written and spoken
  • Experience: 8+ years as a seasoned business-operations generalist whose range spans business operations, accounting and fund administration, and sales, marketing and IR, not a pure executive-assistant background
  • Investment Management/Capital Markets Industry Experience
  • Accounting foundation (required): hands-on accounting experience, fluent across P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow, and able to review fund NAVs; fund administration or fund-accounting exposure is a strong plus
  • Startup-tested: you've thrived in a fast-paced, early-stage startup, comfortable with ambiguity and rapid change while moving fast without dropping quality
  • Cross-functional breadth: you've owned and improved processes across multiple functions (recruiting/people, operations, finance/fund operations, investor relations/exec support, and sales/marketing), not just one
  • Systems fluency: you master modern tools quickly and make them work better, rather than just maintaining them
  • AI-literate and hands-on: you don't just use AI tools, you build workflows and agents to eliminate the manual work you own
  • Ownership: exceptional organization and follow-through; you own outcomes end to end and never drop a ball
  • Judgment: sound discretion handling confidential investor, financial, and personnel information
Preferred
  • Hands-on experience building automations or AI agents (e.g., Zapier, Make, or agent frameworks), or a clear eagerness to learn
  • Recruiting, HR, or people-operations experience
  • Experience supporting investor relations, finance, or professional-services teams
  • Comfort interacting directly with founders, investors, and executives
  • Strongly preferred: a background in financial services, asset management, or investment management. This is a technical industry and direct exposure is a real edge; a strong interest and fast ramp can substitute.
 
  • This is a remote/telecommute position.

  • Experience supporting finance operations and business processes
  • Exceptional organizational, communication, and project management skills
