The Treasury Project Manager position plans, governs, and executes technology and data transformation projects within corporate treasury and banking environments. Positioned at the intersection of treasury operations, data architecture, and enterprise software delivery, this role drives multi-stream delivery workflows—including core treasury management system (TMS) implementations, liquidity platform upgrades, regulatory reporting data pipelines, and historical treasury data migrations. The role functions through two primary operational lenses: • Treasury Transformation Focus: Governing full-lifecycle system upgrades, platform consolidations, and operational change across treasury, cash management, liquidity, and trading applications • Data & Migration Focus: Governing enterprise data architecture alignment, ETL/ELT pipeline deployment, schema mapping, and data migration execution across treasury data lakes and legacy core systems Regardless of focus stream, the position serves as the central operational bridge between business treasury stakeholders, quantitative analysts, data engineering squads, and enterprise IT leads, ensuring that system integrations and data migrations are executed with zero data loss, operational continuity, and strict regulatory alignment.
