Treasury Finance Manager

This role blends financial accounting expertise with treasury exposure, giving you ownership across key areas like FX, intercompany, and cash management. You'll play a central role in evolving treasury processes, helping move the function towards a more structured, efficient, and scalable model.

Client Details

My client is a global organisation with a strong international footprint, operating across multiple regions, currencies, and complex legal structures. They are currently evolving their treasury function, with a clear focus on strengthening financial management, improving governance, and embedding more efficient, technology-enabled processes.

The treasury team plays a central role in supporting the wider business, partnering closely with finance, tax, shared services, and banking providers to ensure effective cash, funding, and risk management across the group.

This is an environment suited to individuals who enjoy both structure and change, where core processes exist, but there is a genuine opportunity to improve, challenge, and modernise how things are done.

Description

The Treasury Finance Manager will take ownership of the financial management aspects of treasury, applying core accounting expertise to areas such as interest, FX, intercompany funding, and cash management. It's an ideal move for a qualified accountant looking to step into treasury, or someone already in treasury wanting a broader, more analytical role.

You'll be reviewing existing processes, identifying inefficiencies, and helping design a more robust, scalable framework, particularly across areas like intercompany, transfer pricing, and treasury P&L. There's a strong focus on embedding best practice, improving documentation, and making better use of systems, including the Treasury Management System.
