Finance Manager

We’re High Scale — a future-focused, data-obsessed agency revolutionizing video advertising on TV and social media. Think Amazon’s obsession with customer experience meets SpaceX’s fearless ambition—that’s the DNA behind everything we do.

Our 160-person team of creatives, strategists, and innovators produces thousands of high-impact campaigns weekly for the world’s leading lifestyle, fashion, beauty, and DTC brands. With 50,000 sq. ft. of DTLA studios and a global influencer network, we’re scaling rapidly—and we’re looking for a Finance Manager who can bring structure, visibility, and strong financial discipline to our next stage of growth.

We move quickly, challenge assumptions, and continuously look for smarter ways to operate. We’re looking for someone who doesn’t just report the numbers, but understands what they mean, spots problems early, and takes ownership of finding solutions.

As High Scale grows, we need stronger financial systems, better forecasting, and greater visibility into how every part of the business is performing.

As our Finance Manager

This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys getting into the numbers while also seeing the bigger picture. You’ll help us understand where we’re performing well, where we’re overspending, where margins can improve, and what financial decisions will help us scale sustainably.

We’re looking for someone who can bring both financial rigor and a builder’s mentality to the role.
