Job Description
Job Title: Director of Fee Calculation & Performance [Private Markets]
Locations: Boston, MA (hybrid), Union, NJ (hybrid), New York City (hybrid)
About the Role
We are looking for a highly driven, tech-forward leader to take full ownership of our Fee Calculation and Performance function. This is a build, scale, and transform mandate — not a maintenance role.
You will lead from the front, rethinking how fees and performance are calculated, controlled, and delivered across a modern private markets platform. The right candidate combines deep domain expertise with a product and automation mindset, and a proven track record of delivering scalable, production-grade solutions — not just ideas or incremental improvements.
If you've led the implementation of systems or processes that materially changed how an organization operates at scale, this role is designed for you.
Why Join SS&C
SS&C combines proprietary technology with deep industry expertise to support complex financial and health care operations. Our teams design, implement, and operate solutions that help clients manage data, automate processes, and scale their businesses with confidence.
You will work with industry experts, modern platforms, and evolving technologies, gaining exposure to real-world operational challenges and large-scale enterprise environments.
How You Will Make an Impact
Own & Lead the Function: Take full end-to-end ownership of fee calculation and performance, establishing standards, accountability, and a high-performance team culture
Build & Deliver at Scale: Design and implement scalable, production-grade fee and performance solutions that replace manual processes and support growth across complex fund structures
Technology & Data Integration: Partner with engineering and product to translate LPAs, waterfalls, and performance logic into automated systems, data models, and calculation engines
Ensure Accuracy & Integrity: Oversee all fee calculations and performance outputs (IRR, MOIC, TVPI, DPI), ensuring they are consistent, auditable, and supported by strong validation and control frameworks
Drive Process & Control Excellence: Implement repeatable, institutional-grade processes with robust controls, minimizing operational risk and key-person dependencies
Lead Client & Stakeholder Engagement: Act as the senior escalation point, confidently addressing complex issues while influencing cross-functional stakeholders and building client trust
Build a High-Impact Team: Recruit, develop, and lead a team that operates with urgency, ownership, and a relentless focus on execution and measurable outcomes
Measure & Improve Performance: Define and track KPIs (automation rates, error reduction, cycle time, scalability) to continuously improve efficiency and deliver results at scale
Required Experience
10+ years in private markets fund administration or asset management with deep expertise in fees, waterfalls, and performance
What Sets You Apart
Proven track record of delivering scalable, production-grade solutions (systems, engines, or platform transformations) with measurable impact
Strong systems/data mindset — able to translate complex financial logic (LPAs, allocations, performance) into automated, repeatable architectures
Experience partnering with engineering and product to build and deploy tech-enabled solutions
Demonstrated leadership building high-performing teams in fast-paced, high-accountability environments
High attention to detail with a bias for action, ownership, and execution
CPA/CFA preferred; technical fluency (data architecture, SQL, automation) a plus
