Mission

Shape treasury excellence through strategic expertise

Tour of Duty

Build the treasury team that supports expansion

About This Job Family

People in this job family manage the money—budgeting, forecasting, reporting, and ensuring the company can fund its ambitions. They provide the financial clarity that enables good decisions and the controls that keep the company out of trouble.

What You'll Do

Treasury professionals manage the organization's cash, investments, and financial risk. They ensure liquidity, optimize capital structure, and protect against financial exposures. Success means the company always has the cash it needs at the lowest cost.

  • Serve as the foremost treasury authority for enterprise risk management
  • Shape the vision for enterprise risk management through strategic expertise
  • Architect operating models for global treasury functions
  • Advise executives on capital structure and banking relationships
  • Define the strategic roadmap for treasury technology investments
  • Develop treasury leaders through mentorship and knowledge transfer

Every responsibility is an accomplishment waiting to happen. The question is: will you own the outcome, or just do the task?

Manage a Team?

Great managers are practitioners first. The IC responsibilities above are your foundation—the craft you model for your team. Your management responsibilities are additive:

  • Hire finance professionals who partner with the business—not just police it
  • Coach business acumen—finance must speak the language of operations
  • Run 1:1s that develop both technical skills and executive presence
  • Give feedback that balances precision with pragmatism
  • Remove blockers—fight for system access, clean data, and stakeholder time

Your team's accomplishments are your accomplishments. Help them craft S.M.A.R.T wins—specific, measurable, and ready to stand on their own.

AI as an Accelerator

AI isn't a skill we call out. It's invisible in the accomplishment but easily visible in the velocity and scale of your outcomes. Here's how people in this role are accelerating their work with AI:

  • Designing team capabilities
  • Building treasury systems
  • Creating hiring frameworks
