As our Head of Treasury , you will own Qonto's day-to-day treasury operations during a pivotal moment: our transition from a payment institution to a fully licensed bank. You will manage daily cash flows, lead a team of three, and ensure we are operationally ready to meet banking regulatory requirements from day one.

You will report directly to Frédéric Giraud , our Director of Core Finance.

➡️ What you’ll do

Manage and optimize daily cash flows, ensuring proper placement and liquidity management under banking regulatory constraints

Lead your treasury team through the transition: two Treasury Managers and our Treasury & Systems Expert, who handles our banking infrastructure (SEPA, SWIFT, TMS)

Serve as the primary treasury contact for our banking license project - conducting the gap analysis between our current PSP operations and banking requirements, and building the roadmap to get us there

Execute ALM strategies defined by our ALM team and validated by the ALM Committee, translating directives into operational reality

Be the credible interface between treasury operations and our Product & Tech teams (Arnaud Alépée's core banking team) to ensure our systems are aligned with banking requirements

Work directly with our Risk & Compliance teams on regulatory implementation

➡️ What we’re looking for

Operational cash management : You have hands-on experience managing significant cash volumes in a bank or large corporate environment (CAC 40 / midcap). You've managed daily positions, intraday liquidity, and cash flows - not just forecasts or reports.

Banking environment : You come from a licensed bank or a large organization with real banking treasury constraints. You understand the difference between PSP and bank treasury operations - concretely, not theoretically.

Systems fluency : You're comfortable with payment infrastructure (SEPA, SWIFT) and treasury management tools (Kyriba, Murex, SAP). You don't need to be an engineer, but you need to speak the language.

Team leadership : You've managed a team of at least 2-3 people in treasury or finance, with different profiles and skill sets.

Ownership mindset : You question processes, identify inefficiencies, and take initiative without waiting to be told. You adapt quickly to new environments and build where nothing exists yet.
