Job description

A publicly traded, sustainability-focused environmental services company with operations across more than 100 locations nationwide is seeking a Manager of Finance & Treasury to safeguard and maximize the company's cash position while partnering with senior leadership on treasury strategy, capital structure, working capital, and financial risk management.

This is a high-ownership role for an experienced finance professional who enjoys sitting at the intersection of treasury operations, FP&A, and executive partnership in a complex, operationally intensive environment.

What You'll Do:

• Oversee the company's annual budgeting and forecasting processes - partnering with functional leaders to ensure accuracy and track key operational metrics
• Develop and implement treasury strategies, policies, and operations to maximize cash management while maintaining appropriate safeguards
• Execute daily cash management to support ongoing company operations
• Direct the development and revision of policies covering capital structure, working capital, foreign exchange, interest rate risk, and insurance risk management
• Partner with the VP of Finance & Treasury and CFO on borrowing, investing, foreign exchange, and corporate finance initiatives
• Develop and maintain a dashboard reporting cash management performance and material KPIs to senior management
• Build and manage relationships with key commercial banking contacts and monitor banking trends to support informed treasury and financing decisions
• Prepare ROI and investment analyses for material capital requests in partnership with functional leaders
• Oversee financial planning and budgeting software - driving continued improvement and maximizing utilization
• Train, develop, and supervise a junior financial analyst supporting budgeting, forecasting, and financial analysis
• Participate in operations benchmarking projects including transportation, disposal, purchasing, and network optimization

What We're Looking For:

• Bachelor's degree and 7+ years of finance experience
• Experience in treasury, cash management, budgeting, and forecasting
• Proven ability to partner with and present to senior leadership
• Advanced Excel skills and strong analytical capabilities
• Experience managing or developing junior finance staff
• NetSuite budgeting and planning experience a plus

Why This Role Stands Out:

• High-ownership treasury and FP&A seat with direct CFO and VP-level partnership
• Broad scope across cash management, capital structure, FX, risk management, and budgeting
• People leadership component - develop and manage a junior analyst
• Mission-driven, sustainability-focused organization with a national footprint
• Competitive compensation with strong benefits including medical, dental, 401(k), and advancement opportunities
