Hedge Fund Administrators

The work environment at fund administration firms is relaxed but professional. At some firms, employees dress in business casual—unless they are meeting with clients. Some of the largest fund administrators offer flexible schedules (including work-from-home options) and encourage their employees to find a good work/life balance. Overall, work in fund administration is far less stressful than if one works in the front office doing portfolio modeling, asset allocation, trade analysis, or valuation modeling, all tasks that directly result in returns for investors.
