Our client is an established Financial Markets business with a strong presence across Europe and a collaborative, close-knit culture. Following the retirement of a long-serving team member who spent more than 30 years within the organisation, they are seeking a Treasury & Financial Markets Associate to join their London office. Reporting directly to the Head of Treasury, you'll join a highly collaborative front-office team and work closely with colleagues across Treasury, Trading, Operations and Compliance. The team places significant value on attitude, reliability and a willingness to learn. Technical knowledge can be developed over time, but the right individual will be someone who enjoys building long-term relationships and contributing to a collaborative team environment.

Your new role

As a Treasury & Financial Markets Associate, you will support an established portfolio of corporate and institutional clients across treasury and financial markets products, with a particular focus on foreign exchange execution, funding and liquidity activities. This is not a traditional business development role. Instead, you will focus on maintaining client relationships, facilitating transactions and delivering a high standard of service to an existing client base.

Key responsibilities will include:

• Managing and supporting relationships with corporate and institutional clients.
• Acting as a key point of contact for client queries and transaction requests.
• Facilitating and coordinating FX transactions, including spot, forward and swap activity.
• Working closely with Treasury and Trading teams to execute client transactions and funding requirements.
• Supporting client funding, investment and risk management activities.
• Assisting with liquidity and funding management initiatives.
• Coordinating client onboarding activity and liaising with Compliance and KYC teams.
• Working closely with internal stakeholders across Treasury, Trading, Operations, Risk and Compliance.
• Maintaining awareness of regulatory, risk and compliance requirements.
• Supporting process improvements and the efficient day-to-day operation of the team.

What you'll need to succeed

To be successful in this role, you will have at least 1 year's relevant experience within Treasury, Financial Markets, Corporate Banking, Banking, Cash Management or a similar financial services environment. You will also possess:

• Strong communication and relationship management skills.
• Excellent attention to detail and organisational ability.
• Strong numerical and analytical skills.
• Proficiency in Microsoft Excel and other Microsoft Office applications.
• A proactive, team-oriented approach and a willingness to learn.

Knowledge of treasury-related products would be highly beneficial, including:

• Cash and liquidity management.
• Funding and deposits.
• Money market products.
• FX products, including spot, forwards and swaps.
• Treasury risk management concepts.
• Interest rate products.
• Corporate treasury activities and bank relationship management.

A degree in Finance, Economics, or a related discipline would be advantageous.

What you'll get in return

Opportunity to build a long-term career within a highly collaborative Financial Markets and Treasury environment. Competitive salary, with flexibility for the right candidate. Hybrid working arrangement. Direct exposure to senior leadership. A supportive and collaborative team environment. Long-term career development within a stable and highly regarded Financial Markets business.
