Full Job Description

This position is onsite at our Los Angeles location. Relocation expenses are not provided.

Who We Are

Our every action is a love letter to the world. Our Mission is to BOOST people to be their best selves so we can improve the world together. Sound ambitious? We believe we can achieve it if we work together because no one can succeed alone — which is why we need you! Are you ready?

The Contract Expense Management Specialist will be an integral part of the family office group and will report directly to the Controller. You’ll be responsible for providing a variety of accounting and administrative services with limited supervision.

Who You Are

You’re an energetic, detail-oriented self starter who thrives on accountability and operational excellence. You take ownership of outcomes, not just tasks, and you’re comfortable following up, enforcing processes, and ensuring things get done the right way.

You are highly organized and proactive, with a strong sense of urgency and follow-through. You don’t let things slip—you track, monitor, and close loops consistently. You’re comfortable working across teams, building relationships, and holding others accountable while maintaining professionalism and trust.

You thrive in fast-paced environments, can pivot quickly, and are able to manage multiple priorities at once. You are discreet, trustworthy, and understand the importance of handling sensitive financial information with care.

You’re a problem solver and systems thinker who looks for ways to improve processes, not just execute them. You communicate clearly, think critically, and operate with a high level of integrity and judgment.

Strong attention to detail and organizational skills
Proven ability to follow up consistently and enforce processes
Experience working across teams or business units
High level of discretion, integrity, and professionalism
Strong problem-solving and critical thinking skills
Excellent verbal and written communication skills
Ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment
Tech-savvy with the ability to learn and optimize new systems quickly
A proactive, ownership-driven mindset with strong follow-through
