Finance Manager- Pacific Electric

Pacific Electric is a 750-capacity music venue where fans and artists come together to share in an electrifying moment – a ‘lightning in a bottle’ type entertainment experience. Set in a historic warehouse, it pairs the raw energy of live performance with refined hospitality and thoughtful design and will act as a cultural conduit where local creatives and global talent intersect.  This venue is adjacent to two hospitality concepts, each with their own unique brand identities.

The Finance Manager plays a critical role in keeping our numbers tight and our venues running smart. This role owns the day-to-day financial operations for the venue and the hospitality concepts, helping us understand how we’re doing, where we’re headed, and what we can improve. You’ll report to the Senior General Manager and work closely with venue teams, central ops, and external partners. We need someone who can bring clarity to complexity—someone who’s comfortable navigating a spreadsheet and a conversation with equal ease.

This is a hands-on, cross-functional, collaborative role. You’ll help us spot risks, stay lean, and move with purpose.
