Treasury Manager

Join a Transforming Finance Team

Our Finance service is undergoing an exciting period of transformation, investment and growth. Following a significant programme of change, the service has moved from a period of underinvestment to a bold new phase focused on delivering excellence, innovation and strategic impact across the organisation.

As the organisation embarks on an ambitious corporate strategy, Finance is playing a pivotal role in shaping its future. Recent investment has strengthened capacity, enhanced capability and created new opportunities for talented finance professionals to make a real difference.

Our newly restructured department is built around four specialist service areas:

• Management Accounting
• Corporate and Strategic Finance
• Projects, Systems and Commercial
• Internal Audit, Risk, Business Development and Improvement

Alongside this enhanced structure, we are investing heavily in professional development, training and career progression, creating an environment where people can thrive and grow.

A new Finance Service Plan provides a clear strategic direction focused on increasing financial literacy across the organisation while raising the profile and influence of Finance as a trusted partner in delivering corporate priorities. Our aim is to support innovative decision-making, drive financial sustainability and play a leading role in organisational improvement and recovery.

The Treasury Manager is a newly created and highly influential role at the heart of this transformation. This is an excellent opportunity to lead the treasury function and play a critical role in securing the organisation's long-term financial resilience.

Working within the Corporate and Strategic Finance Team, you will collaborate with senior leaders, finance managers and services across the organisation to deliver a modern, forward-thinking treasury management service. You will help shape the future direction of Finance, drive continuous improvement and support the organisation in meeting both today's challenges and tomorrow's opportunities.
