The Role

Nivoda is redefining the global jewelry industry through technology. As we continue scaling our operations, the Head of Treasury is responsible for developing and executing global treasury strategy. This includes liquidity efficiency, FX risk, cash flow forecasting, bank relationships, risk management, and profitability impact.

Who Are You

We are looking for a leader who will be responsible for optimizing liquidity, managing financial risk, and enhancing capital efficiency. If you are a data-driven decision maker who deeply understands how to steer an international treasury strategy into business impact, this is the place for you.

What You'll Do

  1. General Treasury Strategy and Operations
    • Lead the team to steer global cash management operations.
    • Optimize global treasury policies.
    • Setup optimized intercompany funding strategies.
    • Monitor global market conditions and mitigate potential risks.
  2. Liquidity Optimization & Cost of Funds
    • Ensure sufficient liquidity to support business growth while minimizing the cost of capital.
    • Manage short-term and long-term funding strategies, optimizing debt vs. equity financing.
    • Establish cash flow forecasting models to enhance decision-making on funding needs.
  3. Capital Efficiency: Cash Inflows vs. Outflows
    • Optimize Days Payable Outstanding (DPO) vs. Days Sales Outstanding (DSO) to enhance working capital efficiency.
    • Implement strategies to accelerate collections and extend payables where commercially viable.
    • Partner with Finance & Operations to align treasury strategies with commercial goals.
  4. Risk Management: FX & Late Payments
    • Develop and implement foreign exchange (FX) risk mitigation strategies to protect against currency volatility.
    • Establish robust credit risk policies to minimize exposure to late or defaulted payments.
    • Enhance controls and compliance for payment processing and treasury operations.
  5. High-Performing Team & Culture
    • Build and lead a small but mighty best-in-class Treasury team with a strong performance culture.
    • Develop talent through mentorship and training.
    • Foster a positive team environment measured by Net Promoter Score (NPS) and culture surveys.

What You'll Need

  • 3+ years experience in Global Treasury or as Group Treasurer.
  • Experience in marketplaces, fintech, or cross border businesses.
  • Expertise in financial modelling, cash flow forecasting, and risk assessment.
  • Familiarity with FX risk management and currency exposure strategies.
  • Experience with Transfer Pricing models.
  • Strong people leadership skills.
  • Ability to align treasury operations with business growth objectives.
  • Strong cross-functional stakeholder management skills.
  • Eye for detail with a bias toward action, clarity, and execution.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience scaling businesses from Series C to IPO.
  • Deep expertise in automation, and real-time data processing.

Objectives and Key Results

The key financial metric for success will be Net Cash Flow Value (NCFV)—a unified measure of working capital and funding costs. The role will focus on improving NCFV by optimizing cash conversion cycles and ensuring efficient capital allocation.

  • NCFV Growth: Tracking improvements in cash conversion cycles and funding costs.
  • Liquidity Optimization: Reduction in weighted average cost of capital (WACC).
  • Capital Efficiency: Improved balance between inflows and outflows (DPO vs. DSO).
  • Risk Mitigation: Reduced FX exposure and delinquency rates.
  • Team Performance: Positive NPS and culture survey results.

What We Offer

  • A high-impact role at a company scaling at 100% YoY growth.
  • AI-driven product innovation, with opportunities to lead the industry.
  • Hybrid and flexible working environment with remote-friendly policies.
  • Unlimited holiday and a high-trust, high-autonomy culture.
