Bookkeeping & Administration (Berlin Atonal)

Outer is looking for an organised person to support bookkeeping and financial administration across Outer and Berlin Atonal, alongside artist and project logistics.

The role centres on keeping financial records accurate, organised and up to date, working with Agenda accounting software and coordinating with our accounting partners. Alongside this, you will help with the practical arrangements behind artist bookings, festivals and other projects, working with artists, agents and our production team.

We welcome applicants with relevant experience, as well as people with strong financial literacy who are willing to develop their bookkeeping skills through training.

About Outer

Based in Berlin and working internationally, Outer develops and produces projects across music, visual art and performance. Our activities include Berlin Atonal, artist representation through Outer Agency, exhibitions, commissions and other cultural projects.

Responsibilities

Bookkeeping and administration

• Support day-to-day bookkeeping and financial administration using Agenda.
• Process and organise invoices, receipts, expenses and supporting documentation.
• Maintain financial records, track payments and follow up on missing information.
• Prepare and coordinate documentation for our accounting partners.
• Maintain spreadsheets and administrative records across the company’s activities.

Agency and festival logistics

• Help arrange artist travel, accommodation and transfers for performances and projects.
• Put together itineraries and practical information so artists know where they need to be and when.
• Liaise with artists, agents, venues and promoters about booking and travel arrangements.
• Support artist hospitality, accreditation and guest lists during festivals and events.
• Assist the production team on site, helping coordinate arrivals, schedules and day-to-day practical needs.

What we are looking for

• Financial literacy, confidence working with numbers and a careful, methodical approach.
• Strong organisational skills and attention to detail.
• Experience with bookkeeping or financial administration, or a willingness to undertake relevant training.
• Familiarity with Agenda, or a commitment to learning the software.
• Good written and spoken English and German.
• Experience in an agency, artist booking or a comparable music-sector role.
• Reliability, clear communication and the ability to follow tasks through independently.
• An interest in experimental music and contemporary cultural practice, and an enjoyment of working with people.

Training

We are open to supporting the right candidate in developing the skills required for the role. Outer may pay for a suitable bookkeeping and/or Agenda course, depending on the candidate’s experience and the training required, subject to agreement. Prior knowledge of Agenda is therefore welcome but not essential.
