The role will also involve cross-functional collaboration, particularly with IT and finance teams, to build an efficient treasury infrastructure from the ground up.

Key Responsibilities:

• Treasury Strategy & Leadership: Drive the development and execution of treasury strategies, aligning them with broader business objectives and long-term growth plans.

• Risk Management: Develop and implement strategies to mitigate financial risks related to cash positioning and foreign exchange, ensuring regulatory compliance.
• Banking Relationships: Establish and manage relationships with key banking partners, negotiating credit facilities, and managing payment processes.
• Financial Reporting: Provide regular reporting on cash flow, variances, and treasury performance to senior management.

The Candidate:

• 12+ years of experience in treasury and finance, with a proven track record of leading treasury operations in a high-growth environment.
• Strong experience in cash management, liquidity planning, and financial reporting.
• Experience implementing and managing a Treasury Management System (TMS) is essential.
• Proven ability to build and lead teams, with strong communication and leadership skills.
• Experience managing banking relationships, negotiating credit lines, and optimizing cash management processes.
• Strong problem-solving abilities and the ability to thrive in a fast-paced, high-growth environment.
• Prior experience in financial services or regulated industries is a plus but not essential.

 What’s on Offer:

• Competitive salary with performance-based bonuses.
• Comprehensive health benefits, including medical, dental, and vision coverage.

• The opportunity to join a rapidly growing company in a key leadership role, with significant career growth potential as the company scales.
