Anjali Shah
Graduated in Master's Finance and Open to Fund Controller & Managed Services Roles
New York, United States
Four years ago, I stepped into one of the most demanding corners of global finance hedge fund administration at SS&C GlobeOp and built a career around getting the numbers right, every time. Over 3.5 years as a Senior Associate, I owned fund accounting, NAV operations, and multi-asset reconciliations for global hedge fund clients. That meant managing complex positions across bonds, FX settlements, repo, and derivatives under tight daily and month-end deadlines while ensuring every number was clean, compliant, and audit-ready. I prepared NAV packs, investor allocations, and annual financial statements that fund managers, LPs, and external auditors depended on. I coordinated across international operations, valuation, and compliance teams to resolve discrepancies and deliver accurate reporting across time zones. What I developed along the way wasn't just technical skill it was the discipline to maintain accuracy under pressure, the judgment to flag risk before it becomes a problem, and the communication skills to work across functions and borders. My academic foundation runs deep too. I hold a Bachelor's in Banking & Insurance and a Post-Graduate diploma in Banking & Finance, and I'm currently completing my MS in Finance at DePaul University's Kellstadt Graduate School of Business (graduating 2026) with coursework in derivatives valuation, financial analytics, internal auditing, fraud examination, and equity research. I'm actively pursuing my CPA, because I believe strong finance professionals need to understand the accounting underneath every decision. My toolkit: Geneva · Bloomberg · Tableau · Advanced Excel · Financial Modeling · CAIA Fundamentals (certified) · Python & SQL (in progress) I bring a rare combination hands-on experience in high-volume fund operations, a strong academic grounding in financial analysis and accounting, and the technical curiosity to keep improving how work gets done. Open to roles in: Fund Accounting | Fund Controllership | Financial Reporting | Finance Operations | Audit & Assurance | Transaction Advisory | Due Diligence | FP&A | Outsourced Accounting & Managed Services
