• Own the accounts payable process, tracking vendor invoices, submitting invoices for payment , and maintaining clear documentation.
• Coordinate with vendors throughout the project lifecycle to ensure deliverables are on time and payments are managed—note: vendor selection and bidding is handled by the Executive Producer.
• Partner closely with internal teams (Production, Project Management, Finance) to keep budgets updated in real time and flag any variances or risks.
• Lead budget reconciliations periodically and at wrap, preparing both internal summaries and client-facing reconciliation reports.
• Provide ongoing operational support during production—including tracking staffing impacts, managing paperwork, and troubleshooting logistical issues.
