Job description

GoCardless is a global bank payment company. Over 100,000 businesses, from start-ups to household names, use GoCardless to collect and send payments through direct debit, real-time payments and open banking.

GoCardless processes US$130bn+ of payments annually, across 30+ countries; helping customers collect and send both recurring and one-off payments, without the chasing, stress or expensive fees. We use AI-powered solutions to improve payment success and reduce fraud. And, with open banking connectivity to over 2,500 banks, we help our customers make faster, more informed decisions.

We are headquartered in the UK with offices in London and Leeds, and additional locations in Australia, France, Ireland, Latvia, Portugal and the United States.

At GoCardless, we're all about supporting you! We'm committed to making our hiring process inclusive and accessible. If you need extra support or adjustments, reach out to your Talent Partner - we're here to help!

And remember: we don't expect you to meet every single requirement. If you're excited by this role, we encourage you to apply!

The role

This new role will report to the Senior Manager, Group Financial Reporting and Treasury, based in Paris, France. You will manage and perform Treasury activities for operating cash held by all group entities, with your priority being to ensure liquidity is managed in compliance with group policy and regulatory requirements. The preparation of reliable forecasts, modelling of stress tests, and reporting of actual cash flows is a significant component of the role. You will also be responsible for all other aspects of treasury risk management - optimising policy and operating procedures.

The role will have exposure to the executive management team, with the Board having oversight over regulatory compliance. You will work closely with multiple functions, including Financial Control, Enterprise Risk, Management Reporting, and Strategic Planning. You are a Treasury specialist with a background in regulated financial services.

What excites you

• Ownership of treasury risk management for a multi-currency international group.
• Effective management of liquidity, financial resilience, and regulatory compliance including prudential capital requirements.
• Advanced Excel modelling of reliable cash flow forecasts and reporting of actuals.
• Optimising policy, procedures, and managing change to implement best practice in treasury risk management.
• Exposure to the executive management team and Board level oversight

What excites us

• Substantial Treasury experience in all aspects of treasury risk, especially liquidity management and counterparty risk.
• Leadership and strategic approach appropriate to the size of Treasury activities. We are looking for expertise and skills to lead and operate effective treasury risk management. Prior experience of managing a Treasury function is not essential.
• Knowledge and experience operating controls to ensure compliance with regulation (FCA or equivalent) in respect of financial resilience and prudential capital requirements.
• Advanced Excel modelling skills.
• Skilled in bank relationship management.
• The ability to work independently, you take pride in solving problems, optimising processes, and reporting.
• Initiative, a strong sense of ownership, and the drive required to thrive in a fast‑paced high‑growth business.
• Abilty to collaborate cross cross‑functionally to deliver short term goals, and the gravitas to influence decisions at a senior level. Assertive when required but collaborative in approach.
• A good understanding of the Payment Services Regulations is a distinct advantage.
• Knowledge of NetSuite or similar accounting packages is desirable.
