We build the operational backbone behind all of it - the settlements, the systems, and the financial infrastructure that let artists and operators focus on the show- We are for the fans, the artists, and the spaces that bring us together. We are building our accounting function right now, deliberately and from a solid base: Sage Intacct with AP automation, a growing portfolio of entities, and real processes replacing informal ones. This role is part of that build. The Role The Staff Accountant owns the day-to-day transactional accounting that keeps our entities running - accounts payable, payroll, and reconciliations - and supports the month-end close alongside the Senior Accountant. This is a good fit for someone with a few years of accounting experience who wants more scope than a single-entity AP seat offers. You will work across multiple entities, touch payroll and sales tax, and have a direct hand in building processes rather than inheriting finished ones. As the company grows, this role is expected to specialize and deepen.

Employees get event access and staff ticket allocations. This is finance work you can point at, and be at. Real scope, not a single lane. Multiple entities, payroll, sales tax, and settlements - far more range than an AP seat at a larger company. Build, don’t just maintain. We are formalizing processes right now. You will help write them, not just follow them. A path. We are building this team intentionally. As volume grows, this role deepens and specializes, and the Senior Accountant track is a real one.
