• Partner with project managers and account leads to track budgets and flag issues early
• Monitor and manage accounts receivable; follow up with clients on outstanding invoices
• Prepare financial reporting for leadership related to revenue forecasting, billing status, and job health
• Support annual financial audits and assist in improving internal billing processes
• Work within agency systems such as Function Point, Asana, Quick Books, and related tools
• Coordinate with vendors to ensure timely receipt and processing of incoming invoices
• Identify opportunities to streamline workflows and improve billing accuracy and efficiency

You’re someone who thrives on bringing order to complexity. You take pride in accuracy, enjoy digging into details, and appreciate how strong financial processes support great creative work. You’re the type of person who asks thoughtful questions, seeks clarity when something seems off, and contributes ideas to improve systems as the agency grows. Collaboration comes naturally to you, and while you work independently with confidence, you also know when to loop others in to keep projects aligned and moving forward.

We offer a competitive salary and a comprehensive benefits package that reflects our commitment to supporting our team. This includes medical, dental, and vision coverage, paid time off and holidays, and a 401(k) plan. You’ll also have opportunities to grow within a creative and supportive environment where collaboration and mission‑driven work are core to our culture.
