Treasury Manager

About The Role:

We are seeking a commercially minded, highly analytical Treasury Manager to join Paysend’s Treasury team in London. This role combines hands-on treasury operations with strategic commercial impact, supporting Paysend’s continued growth through effective liquidity management, funding optimisation, safeguarding oversight, FX operations, and technology-driven process improvement.

The successful candidate will bring strong treasury experience within an EMI, fintech, payments company, or regulated financial services environment, together with strong analytical and problem-solving capabilities. You will be comfortable working with data to identify opportunities, improve processes, build scalable reporting, and support better decision-making. Knowledge of SQL and Python would be advantageous.

Beyond day-to-day treasury execution, you will play an important role in understanding and improving how treasury decisions influence cash efficiency, funding costs, unit economics, profitability, pricing, and market expansion. You will work closely with Finance, Compliance, Product, Operations, and Commercial teams to optimise cash usage, manage liquidity and financial risk, improve settlement and safeguarding processes, and enable scalable growth across a complex international payments environment.

We are looking for a resilient, proactive doer who can operate effectively in a fast-paced environment and balance immediate operational priorities with longer-term strategic thinking. You should be curious, data-driven, commercially aware, and comfortable taking ownership of complex problems from analysis through to implementation.
