Senior Finance Manager Treasury and E-Payment l Retail

Added 28/09/2026

Build and transform a business-critical function
Combine leadership, e-payments and strategic influence

About Our Client

Our client is a leading international organization operating across multiple European markets. As the business continues to grow and evolve, the finance organization is undergoing significant transformation under new leadership, with substantial investments being made in systems, processes and organizational capabilities.
To support the next phase of growth, several new senior finance leadership positions are being created. One of the most business-critical additions is the Senior Finance Manager Treasury & E-Payments, a newly established role with the mandate to professionalize and future-proof the Treasury & Payments function across Europe.

The environment is fast-paced, entrepreneurial and constantly evolving. This is therefore an opportunity for someone who enjoys building structures, driving change and making a tangible impact rather than operating within a highly mature and static environment.

Job Description

Due to continued growth and increasing transaction volumes across multiple European countries, our client is looking for an experienced Treasury & Payments leader who can help shape the next generation of treasury operations.This is intentionally not a traditional Treasury Director position. While cash management, financing and treasury fundamentals remain relevant, the primary focus during the first phase of the role will be on e-payments, payment operations and optimizing the connections between payment providers, payment methods and internal systems.

You will step into a function with significant opportunities for improvement and development. Initially, the role will be highly operational and hands-on. Over time, you will be expected to build a more strategic treasury organization capable of supporting long-term international growth.

You will lead a team of approximately five professionals and play an important role in restructuring and preparing the organization for its next growth phase. This means combining strong leadership skills with the willingness to remain close to the day-to-day operation when required.

The Successful Applicant

Bachelor's or Master's degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, Business Administration or a related field
Approximately 7+ years of relevant professional experience
Strong experience within e-payments, payment operations or payment ecosystems
Proven people leadership experience
Experience managing teams in a corporate environment
Strong stakeholder management skills
Business fluent English
Comfortable working in an international environment undergoing significant change

Preferred Background

Combination of consulting, audit or advisory experience followed by corporate finance or treasury experience
Experience within e-commerce, fintech, technology or another fast-growing environment
Exposure to treasury activities such as cash management, financing or liquidity planning
Experience building or transforming teams and processes
German language skills are considered a plus but are not required

Personal Characteristics

Strong leader with a hands-on mentality
Resilient and able to perform in dynamic environments
Pragmatic and solution-oriented
Comfortable dealing with ambiguity and change
Strong communicator who can influence stakeholders at different levels
Naturally curious and eager to improve existing ways of working

Important

The ideal candidate combines two worlds that are often difficult to find in one profile: deep understanding of e-payment operations and proven leadership experience. The organization is specifically looking for someone who can build and lead, rather than a pure treasury specialist or a solely technical payments expert.

What's on Offer

Competitive base salary up to approximately €120,000
Annual bonus opportunity
Pension scheme
Hybrid working environment
International career opportunities
Learning and development support
Access to senior leadership and strategic decision-making processes

Why Apply?

Build a function, not just manage it
This is a newly created leadership position where you will define the future Treasury & Payments landscape of an international organization rather than simply maintain existing processes.

Unique combination of payments, leadership and transformation
Very few opportunities offer the chance to combine e-payments expertise, operational leadership and strategic treasury transformation within a complex European environment.

Direct impact on business growth
You will play a key role in helping the organization scale securely and efficiently across multiple countries while influencing critical decisions within the finance organization.

High visibility and senior stakeholder exposure
You will work closely with senior finance leadership and contribute directly to the development of a modern finance organization.
