Job Description Senior Treasurer

A senior treasurer is responsible for ensuring and continuously improving the financial ability to act in a company, group or organization.

These categories include: financing, risk management, liquidity management, capital markets and group financial management as well as tax-related processes. Depending on what the senior treasurer specializes in, he takes on the following tasks in the areas listed above: He ensures that his company or organization has sufficient financial resources to be able to act flexibly and effectively. To do this, he must be able to plan strategically and reliably. He must also be able to predict financial challenges – for this he carries out regular analyzes and assessments. He holds the board and the CFOup to date about his assessments and thus ensures that changes can be adequately reacted to.

The Senior Treasurer has an overview of the financial markets and their trends and can relate them to the market opportunities for their own products and services. He should maintain close contact with banks and investors in order to be able to negotiate new loan and overdraft conditions in favor of his own company if necessary.

In addition to supporting the Board of Directors, the Senior Treasurer also lends a helping hand to other finance and accounting departments (e.g. Accounting and Tax departments): providing advice on financial issues affecting the company as a whole, and looks for solutions when bottlenecks occur.

The Senior Treasurer also evaluates the effects on company finances in the case of reorganizations and start-ups and, together with the Treasurer team, devises solutions for these new financial challenges.

For the position of Senior Treasurer, a business administration degree with a focus on finance or accounting or equivalent commercial training with appropriate further training is typically required. He should have solid practical experience in the field of corporate finance.
