• Ensure excess liquidity is invested in line with the firm’s risk appetite and maintain operational resilience across treasury functions.

• Maintain strong governance over payments, liquidity management, and treasury operations, ensuring alignment with internal control frameworks and regulatory requirements.
• Deliver clear liquidity and cash trend reporting to senior leadership and collaborate with internal audit, risk, and finance to strengthen oversight.

• Support capital structure management by providing accurate liquidity and funding data and coordinating funding activities with finance leadership and the CFO.
• Help maintain strong credit ratios consistent with major rating agency methodologies.
• Oversee global FX exposure management and hedging, and monitor committed liquidity facilities (including revolving credit agreements), ensuring covenant compliance and coordination with banking partners and internal stakeholders.

• 10+ years of treasury leadership within a global financial institution, investment bank, asset manager, or high‑complexity public multinational.
• Deep expertise in cash management, liquidity forecasting, covenant management, and global banking infrastructure.
• Demonstrated experience building or transforming treasury processes, systems, and operating models in multi‑entity, multi‑jurisdictional environments.
