Denver
Location: Denver, CO - in-office, Monday–Friday, with occasional event-day support \n Compensation: $70,000–$85,000 per year + discretionary bonus \n Company: Headline Inc. \n \n About Headline \n \n Headline Inc. is a fast-paced event production company producing large-scale festivals, branded activations, live experiences, and special events. We are a hands-on team managing complex projects with a high volume of activity. \n \n We’re looking for an exceptionally organized, detail-oriented Accounting & Business Administrator to take ownership of the day-to-day accounting and administrative processes that keep our business running accurately and efficiently. \n \n We're a small, close-knit team that works closely together day to day in office and occasionally on event sites. This role isn't a fit for someone looking for a remote or asynchronous position. \n \n Position Overview \n \n This is a hands-on, numbers- and detail-intensive role for someone who genuinely enjoys spreadsheets, reconciliation, organization, and making sure information is accurate. \n \n This is an in-person, office-based role in Sunnyside Denver, Monday–Friday. We're a fast-paced, team-oriented environment, and being in the office matters, you'll be working closely with the team, staying in the loop on what's happening across events, and often supporting administrative event prep directly alongside the people running them. Outside of major events, this is a normal in-office workday; occasional evening or weekend support is only needed around events themselves, not a regular occurrence. \n \n A major part of this position involves working with high volumes of financial and operational data across multiple systems. Advanced proficiency in Excel and Google Sheets is essential, as is the ability to independently reconcile information, identify discrepancies, troubleshoot inconsistencies, and ensure records are accurate before payroll, invoices, payments, or reports are finalized. \n \n The Accounting & Business Administrator will be responsible for day-to-day bookkeeping, accounts payable and receivable, employee and contractor payroll preparation, invoicing, reconciliations, contract administration, compliance documentation, and maintaining accurate event-level financial records. \n \n This person will work closely with company leadership and our finance/accounting partners.

Administration \n\n • Prepare client, vendor, and contractor agreements using approved company templates\n, • Populate and verify scopes, fees, payment schedules, company information, and other
