Job description

We're partnering with a growing international insurance business to appoint a Head of Group Treasury. This is a rare opportunity to build and shape the treasury function within a dynamic organisation, working closely with senior leadership to establish best-in-class treasury processes and controls.

Reporting directly to the Group Finance Director, this role offers significant visibility across the business and the opportunity to influence treasury strategy on an international scale.

The Opportunity

As Head of Group Treasury, you will take ownership of the Group's treasury activities, leading a lean function with responsibility for liquidity, cash management and funding across multiple jurisdictions. This is a hands-on leadership role where you'll have the autonomy to develop and enhance treasury operations, including implementing a structured FX hedging framework where none currently exists.

The business is in the process of implementing Cobase, making this an exciting time to join and help shape future treasury infrastructure and operating models.

Key Responsibilities

Lead and develop the Group Treasury function.

Oversee Group cash management, liquidity and forecasting across international entities.

Manage debt facilities and funding requirements, ensuring efficient capital deployment.

Develop and implement a formal FX hedging strategy and governance framework.

Support the successful implementation and optimisation of the Cobase treasury management platform.

Produce accurate cash flow forecasting and provide strategic insight to senior leadership.

Build strong relationships with banking partners and internal stakeholders across Finance and the wider business.

Ensure robust treasury controls, policies and governance are maintained.

Identify opportunities to improve treasury processes and operational efficiency as the business continues to grow.

Candidate Profile

We're looking for an experienced treasury professional who enjoys operating in an entrepreneurial environment and is comfortable building capability within a relatively small treasury function.

You'll ideally bring:

Significant treasury leadership experience within the insurance sector.

A strong background in cash management, liquidity, debt management and cash flow forecasting.

Experience developing or enhancing FX hedging strategies and treasury policies.

Exposure to international treasury operations.

Experience implementing treasury systems, ideally Cobase or a similar treasury management platform.

The ability to operate strategically while remaining hands-on.

Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills.
