This role is accountable for the design, ownership and continuous improvement of the Group’s treasury framework, processes and controls. The role requires a strong understanding of both the cash and accounting aspects of treasury, combined with the ability to translate analysis into clear recommendations, challenge assumptions, and influence decision-making at senior level.

- Prepare, maintain and continuously improve a rolling 13-week cashflow forecast, including variance analysis, commentary and reporting to the Finance Leadership Team.
- Review payment runs and support payment approvals in line with short-term cash forecasts, budgets, liquidity requirements and internal controls.
- Produce longer-term cash forecasts to support budgeting, funding requirements and strategic planning.
- Translate cash analysis into clear recommendations for senior leadership, including mitigation actions for identified risks.
Funding & Group Loans
- Manage the Group’s loan facilities, including monitoring, covenant compliance, and forecasting drawdowns/repayments.
- Prepare information for lenders and internal stakeholders.
- Lead or support interactions with lenders and advisors, including ongoing reporting and information requests.
- Support refinancing, facility amendments or new funding arrangements as required.
- Provide clear insight to management on funding capacity, risks and options.
Intercompany Cash & Transfer Pricing
- Manage intercompany cash movements between Group entities, ensuring they are executed in line with transfer pricing policies, intercompany agreements and tax requirements.
- Work closely with the Tax Manager to ensure intercompany funding, interest calculations and cash movements are compliant and appropriately documented.
- Support accurate accounting and reporting of intercompany balances, interest and settlements.
- Drive improvements to intercompany funding structures and cash efficiency across the Group.
