How to become a treasurer?

A treasurer must have a bachelor’s or master’s degree in accounting, business, or a related field. Relevant work experience in a low-level position, such as a treasury accountant, is also important before pursuing a management role. Additional qualifications include strong analytical, mathematical, and organizational skills. Certification isn’t required, but many treasurers earn a certificate as a Certified Treasury Professional. Positions are available at a wide variety of private companies, government agencies, and other organizations.
