Cross-section measurements for a $Z$ boson produced in association with high-transverse-momentum jets ($p_\text{T}\geq 100$ GeV) and decaying into a charged-lepton pair ($e^+e^-$, $\mu^+\mu^-$) are presented. The measurements are performed using proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 13$ TeV corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb${}^{-1}$ collected by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC. Measurements of angular correlations between the $Z$ boson and the closest jet are performed in events with at least one jet with $p_\text{T}\geq 500$ GeV. Event topologies of particular interest are the collinear emission of a $Z$ boson in dijet events and a boosted $Z$ boson recoiling against a jet. Fiducial cross sections are compared with state-of-the-art theoretical predictions. The data are found to agree with next-to-next-to-leading-order predictions by NNLOjet and with the next-to-leading-order multi-leg generators MadGraph5_aMC@NLO and Sherpa.
