Audit, Controls & Compliance

Support external audits, audit requests, and walkthroughs, as needed.
Partner with the Head of Fin & Acctg Mgr to strengthen internal controls as the company scales

Media & Production Cost Accounting

Collaborate with production, editorial, and operations teams to ensure accurate AP coding and vendor information gathering, cost tracking, and reconciling trackers to the general ledger.
Develop an understanding of media-specific accounting areas such as production costs, talent payments, and deal-related expenses

Process Improvement & Systems & Lead Ramp / T&E Trainings

Identify opportunities to streamline workflows and improve efficiency using systems, Excel, and policy documentation.
Contribute to system optimization across AP and expense management tools.
Lead onboarding and training sessions for managers and new employees related to Ramp, T&E reconciliation expectations, receipt collection requirements, and expense submission best practices.
Educate non-finance teams on expense coding structure and departmental coding expectations to improve financial reporting accuracy, budget tracking, and spend visibility.
Partner cross-functionally to reinforce timely reconciliations, proper documentation standards, and consistent coding practices across the organization.

Required Skills & Qualifications:

5+ years of progressive Accounts Payable experience, including managing high-volume AP operations.
Hands-on experience managing Travel & Expense (T&E), vendor management, and month-end close support.
Ability to independently manage AP workflows with minimal day-to-day supervision.
Experience with or exposure to accounting systems such as NetSuite, Xero, Ramp, or similar.
