This role requires close collaboration with our major service provider, CIBC Mellon, while implementing monitoring controls to ensure internal and external valuation/reporting policies are adhered to; thus, timely, accurate and reliable information is produced. The person in this role is expected to perform review, analysis and production of the alternative product valuations with support from the Senior Manager and Director of the Fund Valuations team.
