I am sending you to the official Mercor page. Applying is free and in English.
I earn a commission from the platform when a candidate I referred gets hired. It changes nothing for you.
This remote role involves reconciling ledgers, attributing NAV movements, investigating trade breaks, and processing corporate actions using mock files. Candidates need three or more years of fund administration or investment operations experience and strong Excel skills.
Description in English, as published by Mercor.
About the work We're building a high-quality library of investment-operations and fund-accounting work products. You'll complete self-contained operations exercises from mock files (ledgers, statements, notices) and produce the analyst deliverable for each, graded against a rubric.
What you'll do
-
Reconcile ledgers vs custodian / bank statements; isolate and explain every residual difference; produce the signed-off rec with adjusting entries.
-
Attribute NAV movements, flag components outside tolerance, and write the variance commentary.
-
Investigate trade breaks between two systems; identify root cause, classify the break, propose the fix, and draft the investigation narrative.
-
Process corporate-action events and compute entitlements per account; handle payment / transfer exceptions (repair / return / escalate); match messy merchant / vendor descriptors to a canonical registry.
You're a fit if you have
-
3+ years in fund administration or investment operations (fund accounting, reconciliations, corporate actions, trade support / middle office, or payment operations) at a fund administrator, custodian, asset manager, or bank ops.
-
Hands-on with reconciliations, NAV, trade breaks, corporate actions, or payment / settlement exceptions; strong Excel.
Nice to have
- CPA or IOC; fund-accounting systems (SS&C / Geneva / Multifonds / InvestOne); SWIFT / settlement systems.
Assessment A ledger-vs-custodian reconciliation that must tie out; a NAV variance attribution; a trade-break root-cause + narrative.
Details Contract, hourly (~15 hrs/week), remote, US-based. Pay $75-110/hr based on experience.
