Senior Treasury Analyst / Treasury Manager

Freelancer.comSydney, AustraliaPosted Jun 1
via Workable

We're looking for a Senior Treasury Analyst / Treasury Manager to join our finance team and help build a disciplined, commercial and scalable treasury function across the group.

Reporting directly to the CFO, you'll own the operating rhythm around cash, liquidity, FX, banking relationships, hedging, yield optimisation and treasury controls. This is a hands-on role with clear commercial impact - making sure the business has the right cash, in the right place, in the right currency, at the right time, while maintaining strong controls over user obligation balances, restricted cash and operating cash across the group.

For the right person, this is the chance to build the function, not just operate inside one.

What you'll do

  • Own daily, weekly and monthly liquidity forecasting across the group
  • Maintain clear visibility of cash balances by entity, bank, currency, and jurisdiction
  • Prepare treasury reporting for the CFO covering cash, liquidity, FX exposures, hedging, yield, bank fees, user obligations and treasury risks
  • Identify upcoming funding needs, trapped cash, surplus balances, and cash movement opportunities
  • Monitor and optimise FX exposures across customer flows, supplier payments, intercompany balances, operating costs and cash balances
  • Help develop a practical FX and hedging framework - exposure identification, policy settings, reporting, execution controls, and effectiveness monitoring
  • Identify opportunities to reduce FX leakage and improve commercial outcomes from currency conversion, settlement flows and international cash movements
  • Manage day-to-day banking relationships across multiple jurisdictions; coordinate bank openings, closures, KYC requests and signatory updates
  • Support the expansion of local banking, payment and acquiring arrangements as the business grows globally
  • Optimise returns on surplus cash while maintaining appropriate liquidity, security and access - monitoring interest rates, bank pricing and yield opportunities across currencies, accounts and jurisdictions
  • Maintain clear reporting and controls over user obligation balances, customer float, restricted cash and operating cash
  • Support policies and controls governing how float and restricted balances are held, moved and invested
  • Strengthen treasury processes, controls, approval workflows, bank access controls and documentation

What we're looking for

  • Experience in treasury, corporate finance, banking, payments, or a related finance role
  • Strong understanding of liquidity forecasting, cash management, FX, hedging, banking operations and treasury controls
  • Experience working across multiple currencies, entities, banks or jurisdictions
  • Strong analytical skills and advanced Excel capability
  • A practical approach to improving processes, reducing cost leakage and strengthening controls
  • High attention to detail and the ability to manage competing priorities
  • Strong communication skills and the confidence to engage directly with banks, payment providers and internal stakeholders
  • A commercial mindset - you enjoy creating visibility, control and value, not just running the process

Bonus points

  • Exposure to a payments, fintech, marketplace or multi-jurisdictional environment
  • CFA, CTP or ACT qualification
  • Familiarity with treasury management systems (TMS) and banking platforms

Why this role

You'll work closely with the CFO and have direct exposure to senior decision-making across cash management, FX optimisation, hedging strategy, banking relationships, yield management and global payments infrastructure.

The commercial upside is real. Improving FX outcomes, optimising surplus cash yield, strengthening liquidity forecasting, building a practical hedging framework, and creating better visibility over user obligation balances can have a meaningful, measurable impact on the business.

This is a hands-on treasury role with genuine ownership - not a seat in someone else's function.
