Requirements

What we're looking for

Experience coordinating different stakeholders
Experience automating processes

At least 5 years of experience in FP&A, commercial controlling, project finance, or business partnering, with mastery of budgets, forecasts, and financial modeling.

Essential experience dealing with different stakeholders and in process automation and improvement.
Advanced Excel and the ability to build robust models from incomplete information; the capacity to translate numbers into commercial decisions.
Intermediate/high English.
University degree in Business Administration, Economics, Finance, Engineering, or similar.

It is fundamental to have a lot of tact. The position will work with promoters, bookers, programming, ticketing, production, backoffice, and finance from different companies.

You must listen, build trust, persuade, and achieve practical progress in a context where not everything is defined.

Valuable experience in live music, touring, concerts, ticketing, events, or other project-based businesses; coming from the industry is not essential.
Valuable experience integrating businesses, creating functions, or implementing new planning models with multiple stakeholders.

Pay & benefits

What you'll get

Very dynamic international environment.
Company in full growth and expansion.
Sector: entertainment.
Offices: Chamberí (remote work).

The role

International live entertainment group is looking for a person to create the FP&A function from scratch (within a new line of business). You will be the financial partner to commercial and operational managers: you will build visibility on profitability, sales, and cash, help drive decision-making, and contribute to integrating ways of working across teams.

What you'll do

Build the economic planning and monitoring model for the new line of business, from the P&L by show and tour to the consolidated portfolio forecast.
Support the economic analysis and approval of opportunities: artist fees and guarantees, escalations and variables, venues, capacities, sales capacity, pricing, production costs, marketing, and demand scenarios.
Monitor sales and ticketing curves against the plan, detect risks, and propose concrete actions alongside commercial and ticketing managers.
Prepare budgets, reforecasts, and variance analyses by show, tour, promoter, and company; separate the effects of volume, pricing, mix, costs, and calendar.
Provide visibility on advances, commitments, revenue and payment schedules, financing needs, and cash exposure; coordinate with Cash Flow and Finance Operations, without assuming the execution of payments.
Reconcile the actual results of events with forecasts, using settlements and information from Booking Administration/Backoffice, Production, and Accounting; identify learnings for future deals.
Work with bookers and promoters, who are responsible for the P&L of their shows: Finance provides models, discipline, comparability, and alerts, without replacing commercial ownership or creating a bottleneck.
Help integrate data, definitions, calendars, and tools between OpCos and teams; develop simple and useful reporting, avoiding bureaucracy and recurring manual reconciliations.
Prepare clear analyses for Touring leadership, FP&A Iberia, and Group Finance, highlighting opportunities, risks, and pending decisions.
