About the Role

Base finances its batteries partly through tax equity partnerships. This role will own the accounting within each partnership, including capital accounts, HLBV, allocations, and the books behind every K-1 and audit. You will build the fund accounting function from the ground up, establishing processes and owning the financial reporting for tax equity funds.

Responsibilities

  • Own all fund-level accounting and financial reporting for Base's tax equity funds, including capital account maintenance, HLBV calculations, income and loss allocations, and distribution waterfall accounting.
  • Lead the monthly, quarterly, and annual close process for each fund, ensuring accurate financial results and reconciliation between fund-level records and corporate accounting in NetSuite.
  • Prepare and maintain audit-ready accounting support, including K-1 schedules, capital account statements, financial statement workpapers, and responses to auditor and investor inquiries.
  • Design and implement the fund accounting infrastructure, including the chart of accounts, close procedures, reconciliation frameworks, accounting policies, and internal controls to support scalability and audit compliance.
  • Account for and reconcile capital activity, fundings, distributions, management fees, and other fund transactions, ensuring alignment between financial models and the general ledger.
  • Partner with asset management, capital markets, and tax counsel as new tax equity funds are structured, so accounting requirements are built in from day one, not retrofitted after close.
  • Flag where manual processes should become automated as fund count and complexity grow.

Requirements

  • 3–6+ years in fund accounting, partnership accounting, or tax equity accounting — at a fund administrator, sponsor or developer, bank, or accounting firm.
  • Working knowledge of partnership accounting mechanics: capital accounts, HLBV, income and loss allocations, and waterfall structures.
  • Comfort owning a monthly close process end to end, with no one behind you to catch mistakes.
  • Experience preparing for or supporting an audit: schedules, reconciliations, and answering auditor questions directly.
  • Ability to build a process where none exists — you're as comfortable writing the SOP as following one.
