Key Responsibilities

  • Act as the primary financial co-pilot for festival producers, providing real-time data analysis, operational guidance, and cost projections.
  • Continuously track festival spend against approved budgets, identifying savings opportunities and flagging cost variances before they impact the bottom line.
  • Oversee line-item invoice processing, GL coding, vendor contract tracking, and accruals to guarantee strict accounting accuracy across all event ledger items.
  • Conduct deep-dive Year-over-Year line-item analyses across festival editions to track cost trends, benchmark vendor rates, and improve future budget accuracy.
  • Investigate site-level expense spikes (e.g., labor overruns, staging logistics, site operations) to explain precisely what drives the numbers behind each festival.
  • Deliver concise post-event financial debriefs and updated cash-flow forecasts to the Finance Manager and executive production leads.

Qualifications

  • 2–5 years in production accounting, financial analysis, or operational finance (live events, festivals, or entertainment preferred).
  • Advanced Microsoft Excel capabilities (pivot tables, complex formulas, modeling); experience with ERPs and production accounting software.
  • High comfort level working with large datasets, unearthing root causes, and solving complex cost puzzles under deadline pressure.
  • Exceptional ability to bridge the gap between creative production operations and corporate finance standards.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, Business Administration, or a related field.

Compensation and Benefits

  • This position is based in Nashville, Tennessee or Louisville, Kentucky. Hybrid working schedule, 4 days in office.
  • The estimated salary range for this position is DOE and includes medical/dental/vision/401k benefits. This represents the typical salary range for this position and is just one component of DWP's total compensation package for employees.
