Liquidity Management Officer

We are offering an opportunity to join the Liquidity Management team, supporting the positioning and funding of State Street’s global nostro balances across the EMEA region. The Officer will oversee daily business-as-usual activity, provide direct support to the management team and act as a role model and first point of escalation for the wider team. The role requires clear communication, sound judgement and the ability to remain calm and composed in a highly time-critical environment.

Responsibilities

  • Oversee the Liquidity Management team’s daily BAU activity, ensuring priorities, currency deadlines and operational risks are managed effectively.
  • Provide and oversee forecasts of expected nostro-related cash activity and monitor direct clearing activity.
  • Review and release funding calculations and payments, applying a high level of critical attention to detail.
  • Act as a subject-matter expert and first point of escalation for complex cash-related investigations and operational issues.
  • Provide direct support to the management team, field questions from colleagues and stakeholders, and deliver clear and accurate updates to senior management.
  • Remain calm and composed in pressurised or time-critical situations, making sound and rational decisions.
  • Demonstrate a proactive approach to cash funding and nostro forecasting to maximise net interest revenue and reduce exposure.
  • Maintain awareness of matters affecting cash funding, including foreign exchange and interest-rate volatility.
  • Maintain effective relationships with internal and external counterparts, including Treasury and Cash teams, client service groups, brokers, sub-custodians, agent banks and clearing schemes.
  • Prepare and validate reports for delivery to management.
  • Train team members and provide ongoing operational coaching, while supporting the manager’s wider development objectives.
  • Maintain the team’s operating procedures and ensure they remain accurate and up to date.
  • Deputise for the manager when required.
  • Participate in projects as required, representing the business and ensuring operational requirements are understood.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
