Location: EMEA Region - London
Reports to: EMEA Regional Treasurer
Company: Global Multinational Corporation (USD 25bn+ turnover)
Role Overview:
The Treasury Manager – Cash Management (EMEA) will play a pivotal role in shaping and optimising the region’s cash infrastructure within a highly complex, multinational environment. Sitting within the EMEA regional treasury team, this role focuses on the strategic and operational management of the region’s banking structure, cash pooling framework, and cash centralisation processes.
The EMEA region currently operates six cash pools and centralises cash from global entities.

This role requires a hands‑on cash specialist with strong project management capabilities, deep knowledge of cash pooling and centralisation tools, and the ability to drive automation and process improvement across a largely manual environment.

Build treasury capability within the team and foster a culture of learning and continuous improvement
