Who we are

Allocator One is on a mission to transform venture capital by backing first-time fund managers who identify and fund the businesses of tomorrow. We don’t just aim for exceptional financial returns; we drive investments that solve big global problems. The world is at a critical juncture, and the best answers will come from visionary entrepreneurs and the GPs who back them.

At Allocator One, we systematically find and support the next generation of top-tier venture capital talent, ensuring that fresh perspectives, innovation, and risk-taking get the capital and support they deserve.

Our team is lean, entrepreneurial, and high-performing. We move fast, think deeply, and care deeply about impact. This isn’t just another job - it’s an opportunity to help tackle the most pressing challenges of our time.

Tasks

Who we are looking for

We are in search of a Fund Administration Manager to lead on our UK fund operational requirements. You will need to be proactive, organised and creative - coming up with new ways of doing old things is a win in our book - if something isn’t working, or can be improved, do it!

You will be part of a small UK based team, but will work collaboratively and consistently across our group of companies to ensure a seamless experience for both our GPs and LPs. You will make smart, informed decisions, balancing precision and initiative to drive our business forward.

You will enjoy the thrill of the challenge and the variety that comes with it. We’re developing, growing and learning all the time and we’re still a small team; you’ll be someone who is dependable and open to rolling up their sleeves to help us succeed.

We are looking for someone with a leadership mindset who thrives on responsibility. This role is not reactive; it’s proactive, strategic, and integral to Allocator One’s success.

Your responsibilities

  • GP & LP Onboarding: own the onboarding of our fund managers and investors. This is more than just a tick-box exercise - you should pride yourself on delivering a service unlike anything they’ve received from other fund admins in the past - we’re here to do it better.
  • KYC & AML: drive the collection, review and acceptance/rejection of investor onboarding documentation. You may be the investor’s first interaction with Allocator One, and may be their primary point of contact - go above and beyond to make it as smooth as possible.
  • Process management & cash calls: manage cash demands of the funds, liaise with investors and track payments.
  • Audit oversight: oversee and assist with the annual audits and audit reports by our external auditors.
  • Fund Governance: support on the preparation of Board and IC materials.
  • Stakeholder management: serve as the point of contact between internal & external stakeholders. Build and maintain relationships with key clients, partners, and team members.
  • Financial Reporting: pull together relevant data in order to prepare clear, concise and compliant quarterly reports for investors, as well as regulators, where required.
  • Operational excellence: identify inefficiencies and implement processes to improve how the leadership team works. You will constantly ask, "Is there a smarter way to do this?". Proactive problem-solving: anticipate challenges before they become problems, develop solutions independently, and flag what needs leadership’s attention.

Requirements

What sets you apart

  • At least 4 years of experience in a role that has prepared and qualified you for this job - you’ve honed the skills, confidence, and judgement to deliver at a strategic level.
  • Digital native: You are tech-savvy, fluent in modern tools, and instinctively understand how to leverage technology to streamline workflows and drive results.
  • Leadership mindset: You think like a leader, not just an executor. You actively engage with challenges, drive decisions, and don’t wait to be told what to do.
  • Strategic intuition: You connect the dots quickly, understand priorities, and make smart, independent decisions that align with the business’ goals.
  • Exceptional communication: You are precise, clear, and tactful - whether writing emails, coordinating meetings, or handling sensitive communications.
  • Ownership and accountability: You thrive in an environment where you are trusted to deliver results and where accountability is non-negotiable.
  • Love for detail and quality: You have a sharp eye for detail and a strong commitment to delivering work that is polished, accurate, and of the highest quality.

  • A no-assholes-allowed environment - we believe in respect, collaboration, and pushing each other to be better.
