\n\tGreenSlate, a Hollywood payroll company that offers software and services to production companies to track payments, process residuals and streamline accounting, is making changes to its C-suite. <\/p>\n

\n\tJohn Finn, who founded the Burbank-based company in 2004 after working as a production accountant on projects like Lost in Translation<\/em>, Pollock <\/em>and Before Night Falls<\/em>, is stepping back from his role as CEO of GreenSlate. He\u2019ll serve as exec chair of the company\u2019s board of directors and remain as majority owner of the firm.<\/p>\n

\n\tMike Leiba, who has spent 18 years at GreenSlate and currently holds the president and chief operating officer title, will step in to the CEO role. The company also recently added former Village Roadshow CEO Steve Mosko and former United Talent Agency partner David Spingarn to its board.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cMike\u2019s leadership has been essential to GreenSlate\u2019s consistent growth and success over the last 18 years,\u201d Finn stated of the transition. \u201cAs COO and president, he has worked closely with our customers to drive efficient solutions to their toughest challenges. As CEO, he will continue to drive our vision forward, delivering the outstanding service and technological innovation our clients expect. After nearly two decades of collaboration, I know Mike is the right leader to accelerate our growth and deliver ever-greater value to clients.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThe entertainment industry payroll space, led by giants like Cast & Crew (Est. 1976) and Entertainment Partners (also Est. 1976), has seen new tech-driven entrants like Wrapbook (founded in 2018) join the sector as film and TV production has moved increasingly beyond traditional studios and mini-majors. As such, GreenSlate also pitches itself to potential clients as an \u201calternative to legacy, paper-driven systems that have stifled production efficiency since the 1970s.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tGreenSlate\u2019s touted roster of clients includes Netflix, A24, HBO, Paramount, Skydance, Tyler Perry Studios, Fifth Season, Banijay Americas, The North Road Company, Imagine Entertainment, Hello Sunshine, SpringHill Entertainment, Vice Media<\/a> and All3Media Americas.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe company, which has 225 employees across three countries, counts private equity firm Francisco Partners as its lead investor, with VSS Capital Partners offering support for its expansion in the payroll space.<\/p>\n

\n\tAdded Leiba as he steps in to the CEO role, \u201cGreenSlate sets the industry standard for both technology<\/a> and service \u2014 this has been the foundation of our success so far and will continue to be in the future. This is how we help productions run their businesses smoothly, save more, make every dollar count, and avoid costly mistakes. As we move into this next phase, I look forward to partnering even more closely with our clients to create even greater opportunities for shared success.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
