About Safetykleen

Imagine working for a company where your role genuinely matters for the planet. We are a global leader with over 50 years’ experience, helping businesses operate more safely, responsibly, and efficiently through our specialist cleaning, waste, and environmental services. Across our international business, we support customers with critical operational needs while helping reduce environmental impact.

We are hiring a Treasury Manager to take end-to-end ownership of treasury across a £350m+ international group, operating across 15+ countries and backed by private equity. This is a rare opportunity to manage our treasury function with real breadth, visibility, and influence, working directly with senior leadership, private equity and banks, while gaining exposure to the mechanics of an international growth business.

This is a career-defining role, offering a rare combination of hands-on treasury, strategic exposure, and direct access to funding, lenders, and capital markets. You don’t need to come from a "pure treasury" background. What matters is your interest and experience in treasury matters, exposure to cash and funding, and ambition to step up.

Why this role is different

• Full Group treasury ownership for a growing private equity business, driving best in class treasury practice across cash and debt management, and delivering shareholder value.
• Private equity environment, exposure to funding, facilities management, and transactions.
• Direct exposure to banks and rating agencies.
• Blend of strategic + operational, from forecasting to optimising capital structure.
• Supporting finance teams across the group with operational treasury matters, including banking, cash pooling, signatories and controls, repatriation planning and execution.
• Support the Group's Order to Cash process, including tracking and management of cash.
• Build more strategic funding capability in-house supported by PE advisors.
• Manage the Group's insurance programme as part of the wider risk management.
• Highly visible role within the senior finance team.

This is an ideal move for someone looking to step up within treasury and gain real commercial exposure fast in an international business.

What you’ll be doing

You’ll own treasury across the Group, including:

• Funding, Banking & Capital Structure
  • Manage relationships with banks and the facility agent.
  • Support fundraising, refinancing, and facility management.
  • Engage with rating agencies.
  • Contribute to transactions and strategic funding decisions.
• Cash & Liquidity
  • Full ownership of Group cash management and liquidity.
  • Ownership of the 13-week cash flow forecast.
  • Improve visibility, control, and decision-making across markets.
• Treasury Operations
  • Manage cash pooling structures across jurisdictions.
  • Oversee cash repatriation and intercompany funding.
  • Optimise treasury structures as the business grows.
• Governance & Risk
  • Ensure strong treasury controls and compliance.
  • Support risk management across liquidity and funding, including interest rate and FX hedging strategy and execution.
• Broader Exposure
  • Involvement in tax considerations and structuring.
  • Ownership of the Group insurance programme.
  • Work closely with finance teams across all markets.

Who this could suit

We are deliberately open on background – this role is about potential and trajectory, not just job title. You could be coming from:

• Banking (e.g. corporate banking, lending, treasury services).
• Audit / Big 4 with exposure to cash, debt, or treasury.
• Group Finance with forecasting, cash repatriation, funding, or liquidity experience.
• Government / public sector with large-scale cash management or funding exposure.
• Corporate roles in international or multi-entity businesses.

What matters most

• An understanding of the commercial drivers of cash – working capital through to operating cash flow, to debt service and funding.
• Experience of managing banking and facility relationships.
• Exposure to cash flow forecasting (ideally 13-week).
• Experience of cash pooling, funding, and liquidity management.
• Strong grasp of controls, governance, and financial risk.
• Ability to build strong relationships with banks, lenders, and internal stakeholders.
• High attention to detail with strong analytical thinking.

The profile

• ACT, ACA, CIFAS qualified or equivalent.
• 5+ years PQE (or equivalent experience).
• Curious and motivated to build a career in treasury.
• Able to engage confidently with stakeholders internally and externally.
• Commercially aware and keen to understand how the business operates.
• Looking for a step up into a broader, more visible role.

The opportunity

This is a genuine entry point into senior treasury and private equity exposure. You’ll move from:

• Supporting treasury to owning it.
• Working in a silo to operating at the centre of the business.
• Technical delivery to real-world commercial influence.

If you’re looking to accelerate your career with real breadth, exposure, and responsibility, this is a standout opportunity.
