- Ensure client instructions are complete, properly authorised, and within approved mandates and limits before execution.
- Track transactions through to settlement, investigate breaks or failed payments, and support timely reconciliations of bank, custody, and internal records.
- Maintain accurate static data, account details, and supporting due-diligence records.
- Prepare daily and periodic treasury information, including balances, maturities, yields, and exceptions for governance reporting.
- Monitor counterparty exposures and approved limits across the treasury portfolio, escalating any breaches or other concerns.
- Build effective relationships with colleagues, respond professionally to treasury-related queries, and identify potential clients for treasury services.
- Support the onboarding of new treasury clients by coordinating with colleagues and gathering necessary documentation.
- Contribute to maintaining procedures, data quality improvements, and the testing and implementation of approved changes.
- Maintain orderly records, provide cover for core treasury activities, and support business continuity arrangements.
Job Requirements:
- Previous treasury experience is helpful but not essential; candidates with transferable skills from education, banking, finance, or customer service are encouraged to apply.
- A good standard of general education with strong numeracy and written English skills; a willingness to learn treasury processes is essential.

- Ability to organise competing priorities, meet cut-off times, and follow tasks through to completion.
- Strong numerical, analytical, and reconciliation skills with confidence in investigating discrepancies.
- Clear and professional written and verbal communication skills.
- Sound judgement and a proactive approach to escalating issues rather than circumventing controls.
