Global Treasurer - Water Treatment Equipment Job Houston area,Texas USA,Finance & Banking

Our client is an international water treatment equipment manufacturer. They require an exceptional Global Treasurer – Water Treatment Equipment to anchor their financial operations across the United States and international markets. Sitting at the right hand of the CFO, this is a high-impact executive role for someone who combines deep technical treasury expertise with the leadership presence to build, inspire, and develop a world‑class team.

This is not a maintenance role — they require a builder, a strategist, and a people developer who can elevate the treasury function into a true competitive advantage for the business.

The ideal candidate for this role is:

A genuine people developer — you are known for the careers you have helped build, not just the deals you have closed.
Have executive presence and credibility with CFO, board, and external banking partners.
Highly collaborative, able to influence without authority across functions and geographies.
Calm, decisive, and clear‑headed in high‑pressure or rapidly changing environments.

The strategic pillars of the role include:

Cash & Liquidity Management
. Own the global cash position with full visibility and control. Design and manage cash pooling and notional pooling structures across US and international entities, build rolling liquidity forecasts, and ensure the business is never caught short or sitting on unproductive capital. This role will establish a daily cash reporting rhythm that gives the CFO and leadership team real‑time confidence in the company's liquidity position.

Capital Markets & Debt Management
. Lead the company's relationship with capital markets — managing existing revolving credit facilities, term loans, and other debt instruments, while proactively identifying the right funding structures to support growth. This role will own all bank syndication processes, lead covenant compliance, and advise the CFO on optimal capital structure in the context of US and global market conditions.

Foreign Exchange & Financial Risk Management
. Build and execute a disciplined hedging program to protect the company from FX, interest rate, and, where applicable, commodity exposure. The Global Treasurer will define the company's risk appetite in collaboration with the CFO, translate that into a practical hedging policy, and ensure execution is consistent, well‑documented, and defensible to the board.

Banking & Financial Counter party Relationships
. Serve as the executive owner of all US and global banking relationships. This role will negotiate credit terms, fees, and service agreements, rationalize the banking panel where appropriate, and ensure the company always has access to the financial products and capacity it needs. Strong relationships with US money center banks and global institutions are essential.

Treasury Technology & Digital Transformation
. Drive the selection, implementation, and optimization of Treasury Management Systems (TMS) and related financial technology. The role will build automation into cash forecasting, payment workflows, and reconciliation processes, and establish a single, reliable source of truth for all treasury data across the group. Experience with platforms such as Kyriba, GTreasury, or similar is strongly valued.

Compliance, Internal Controls & Governance
. Ensure all treasury activities are executed within a robust control environment, fully compliant with US GAAP, SOX requirements, relevant international regulations, and internal policy. This role will own the global treasury policy, review it annually, and ensure it is understood and followed across all entities and geographies.

Pension, Insurance & Corporate Finance Support
. Where applicable, oversee pension fund governance, corporate insurance programs, and provide treasury input into M&A transactions, due diligence processes, and post‑merger integration activities in partnership with the CFO and corporate development teams.

The caliber of leader we are looking for will be defined as much by how they grow people as by what they personally deliver. Specifically, this role is expected to:
