  • Analyze and report on the financial impact of foreign exchange exposures and hedging activities, including the preparation of management reports, dashboards, and executive presentations.
  • Partner with accounting, finance, consolidation, and external service providers to ensure accurate valuation, accounting, reporting, and documentation of derivative transactions and hedging activities.
  • Maintain compliance with treasury policies, internal controls, regulatory requirements, and hedge accounting standards by ensuring timely and accurate documentation and reporting.
  • Drive continuous improvement in treasury processes through automation, data analytics, treasury technology solutions, and AI-enabled capabilities to improve efficiency, visibility, and decision-making.
  • Serve as a subject matter expert on foreign exchange risk management by providing guidance, training, and support to finance, accounting, procurement, and business teams across the organization.
  • Support Treasury leadership on strategic initiatives and special projects related to liquidity management, cash forecasting, working capital optimization, financial risk management, and treasury transformation initiatives.

What You Need to Be Successful

  • 5+ years of progressive treasury experience, including significant experience in corporate foreign exchange, interest rate or commodity risk management within a global, multinational organization.
  • Strong understanding of foreign exchange markets, financial risk management, derivative instruments, and treasury best practices.

  • Experience working closely with Corporate Finance, FP&A, Accounting, Tax, and business unit finance teams to support financial planning, risk management, and business decision-making.
  • Strong financial modeling, quantitative analysis, and problem-solving skills, including advanced proficiency in Microsoft Excel.
  • Experience with foreign exchange trading platforms, treasury management systems, and foreign exchange exposure management tools.
  • Experience utilizing ERP, consolidation, and financial reporting systems to analyze exposures, validate forecasts, and support treasury reporting and decision-making.
  • Demonstrated ability to evaluate complex financial exposures, develop risk mitigation strategies, and communicate recommendations to senior management.
  • Experience preparing management reporting, dashboards, and analytical presentations that translate complex financial information into actionable business insights.
  • Strong project management skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities, meet deadlines, and drive process improvements in a fast-paced global environment.
  • Demonstrated ability to leverage data analytics, automation, and AI-enabled tools to improve forecasting, reporting, workflow efficiency, and decision-making.
  • Excellent written, verbal, and presentation skills with the ability to communicate effectively across all levels of the organization.
