Your New Role

As a Production Finance Accountant, you'll be right at the heart of bringing each show to life, partnering with Finance Executives to build everything from the ground up. From setting up companies and banking structures to implementing digital accounting systems and assigning authorised signers, you'll play a critical role in getting productions off the starting line.

You’ll be the go‑to for all things banking and funding, managing cash flow throughout the lifecycle of a show and ensuring everything runs smoothly behind the scenes. You’ll work closely with freelance accountants to maintain robust controls, oversee reconciliations and reporting, and keep everything compliant, from internal processes to guild and union audits.

If you’re someone who thrives in a fast‑paced environment and wants to see your work directly support world‑class productions, this is a role where you’ll make a real difference from day 1.

Your Role Accountabilities
  • Opening and maintaining production bank accounts.
  • Managing cash flow, including funding requests and transfers.
  • Investigating and resolving any discrepancies or outstanding items.
  • Preparing monthly or quarterly reconciliation reports for management review.
  • Assisting with complex transactions or problem‑solving as needed.
  • Guiding company policies, accounting procedures, and system usage.
  • Assisting with forecasting, budgeting, and variance analysis for multiple productions.
  • Supporting special projects or initiatives led by the VP or Directors.
  • Ensuring timely and accurate delivery of financial data for executive decision‑making.
Qualifications & Experiences
  • Solid production or accounting experience.
  • Proficient with C&C and EP accounting software and other industry‑standard digital systems.
  • Familiarity with production accounting software (e.g., PSL, Smart Accounting, Eclipse) is a plus.
