A little bit about our team:
A little bit about our team:
Warner Music Group's Global Business Services (GBS) is home to the finance operations, legal, and administrative functions that provide critical support and best-in-class services to our global Finance labels and affiliates. Each regional center embodies the collaboration and creative spirit that stems from the company's deep history in championing entrepreneurial thinking and artist-focused innovation, enabling our employees to develop a wide range of skills through cross-function collaboration and development opportunities. Based out of Nashville, our US Participations team is fully remote and committed to supporting all U.S. record labels, and artist & label services divisions.
Why this could be your next big break:
You are a highly autonomous finance professional who takes immense pride in ownership and accountability. You don't just process data; you interrogate it. You thrive in environments where you are expected to be a subject matter expert, serving as a trusted point of contact for both stakeholders across the company, and your peers.
This role is perfect for someone coming from a meticulous Audit, Commercial Finance, or Financial Reporting background who is ready to move into a fast-paced, dynamic industry. You'll be given the space to work independently, but you'll do so through a lens of deep collaboration-mentoring analysts and acting as a liaison between financial accounting, royalty operations and our business. If you enjoy the challenge of high-volume data, complex financial calculations, and the satisfaction of delivering accurate insights under tight deadlines, this is your next step.
Here you'll get to:
Financial Controllership & Statement Insights

• End-to-End Ownership: Run the preparation and analysis of sophisticated participation profit-share and distribution financial statements. You will ensure every output aligns with both unique contractual obligations and meticulous accounting standards.
• Financial Accounting Mastery: Lead fiscal month-end close tasks, including complex true-ups, reconciliations, and expense accruals. You will act as the link between statement reporting and general ledger accuracy, ensuring financial integrity for the labels you support.
• Analytical Integrity & Oversight: Act as the team's primary "Variance Detective" and quality gatekeeper. You will interrogate the "how" and "why" behind data fluctuations to provide clear narratives for management while reviewing peer statements to ensure the highest standards of precision, audit-readiness, and internal control compliance.

Contractual Intelligence & Strategic Data Analysis

• Contractual Interpretation: Translate complex artist and label legal agreements into functional financial models. You will identify and comprehend intricate deal terms and apply them to large-scale data sets to ensure reporting accuracy and rigor.
• Data-Driven Strategic Support: Compile and analyze vast sets of transactional data to support statement reporting, budgets, and cash forecasts. You will provide critical financial data for deal models and audit responses, ensuring the Participations group remains a value-add partner to the wider organization.
• Risk Mitigation & Resolution: Proactively investigate artist inquiries, data issues or audit claims with a focus on mitigating financial risk. You are expected to anticipate future roadblocks and suggest resolutions to
  management before they impact deadlines or relationships.

Collaboration, Mentorship & Process Innovation

• Peer Leadership & Mentorship: Take an active role in team development by guiding analysts, providing ongoing review feedback, and facilitating training sessions for new hires to demonstrate best practices in Participations accounting.
• Stakeholder Partnership: Build and maintain strong working relationships across the company-from label finance and legal teams to senior executives-acting as a trusted partner with a high degree of professional IQ and responsiveness.
• Process Transformation: Contribute to the evolution of the department by identifying inefficiencies and implementing technology-driven solutions. You will champion automation initiatives and process improvements that drive team-wide excellence and scalable growth.

About you:
Education & Experience: BA/BS degree required (Accounting or Finance preferred) with 3-5 years of
professional experience in a complex financial capacity.

• Technical Power-User: Advanced proficiency with MS Excel is crucial. You should be extremely
  comfortable with complex calculations and working with large, disparate data sets.
• Accounting Fluency: You have a solid grasp of financial accounting principles and how they apply to P&L statements, reconciliations, fiscal close processes and internal controls.
• Analytical Autonomy: You have strong problem-solving and analytical skills, with a proven track record of taking full ownership of your work. You are self-driven, highly organized, and able to execute with accuracy and deliver under pressure.
• Elite Communicator: You can distill complex financial information into clear, actionable insights for internal customers and possess the leadership traits necessary to mentor peers.

We'd love it if you also had:

• Experience in Music, Media, or Entertainment (specifically in Participations, Royalties or Audit).
• Proficiency with SAP S4 Hana, SAP Analysis for Office, BI and SharePoint.
• A natural technical curiosity, and digital innovation having leveraged Generative AI tools to automate manual workflows and drive efficiency in finance operations.
• Proven success working in a fully remote, Shared Services environment.
