Cash Manager, Treasury

About the role

Treasury at Anthropic is responsible for managing the company's global cash and liquidity functions. This role reports to the Treasury Ops Lead and involves running the daily cash desk, positioning, forecasting, funding, and payments. It also includes building visibility and liquidity structures, optimizing working cash balances, and minimizing idle funds.

Responsibilities

• Own daily cash positioning across all entities and currencies, track balances, consolidate activity, and set the daily funding plan
• Direct cash management operations: wire/ACH execution, cash concentration, sweep structures, and cash pooling activities
• Build and run the short- and medium-term cash forecast (13-week and beyond), including variance tracking, scenario modeling, and reporting to leadership
• Identify and implement strategies to optimize working cash balances and minimize idle funds - right cash, right entity, right currency, right time
• Maintain liquidity risk, counterparty exposure, and concentration limits; escalate before they become issues
• Build a single global view of cash - consolidate balance and transaction reporting across all banks, entities, and currencies into one source of truth
• Partner with the Accounting team to design and manage intercompany funding and settlement processes, including cross-border movement, netting, and documentation
• Optimize cash repatriation strategies in partnership with Accounting, Tax, and Legal
• Manage bank relationships from the services side including fee analysis, service reviews, wallet allocation, and connectivity - to get the most out of our banking partners
• Design the "Claudification" layer for cash: identify which workflows to be automated, build the automation, keep humans in the decisions that need judgment
• Support TMS buy vs build evaluation/implementation with a cash-and-liquidity lens: bank connectivity (SWIFT, APIs, host-to-host), balance/transaction reporting, cash-position and forecast modules
• Partner with Finance Systems to simplify and automate cash reporting and forecasting
• Own cash and liquidity data quality - the source of truth that positioning, forecasting, and investment decisions depend on
• Execute cash processes with strong focus on controls, documentation, segregation of duties, and audit readiness
• Support development and maintenance of cash management, liquidity, and ST investment policies and procedures
• Document cash-desk controls for SOX readiness - not as a separate project, but as how the work gets done
• Support close activities, cash reporting, and audit requests

Requirements

• You currently own the daily cash position. You log into the bank portals or TMS, you run the position, you set the funding plan, you execute the wires. This is a doing role, not a managing role.
• Liquidity-native depth. You came up through the cash desk - positioning, forecasting, pooling, intercompany funding, FX settlement. You think in cash flows and funding needs, not just balances.
• Multi-entity, multi-currency fluency. You've moved money across borders, worked through repatriation constraints, and built (or run) a global pooling or concentration structure.
• Player-coach DNA. You still do the work - run the position, chase the variance, troubleshoot the wire — while building the system so nobody has to do it manually next quarter.
• Hands-on TMS experience. You've worked in a Treasury Management System (Kyriba, GTreasury, Trovata, Quantum, or similar) on the cash/forecasting/connectivity side: configured it, broken it, fixed it.
• SOX in your DNA. You think in audit trails, approval chains, and segregation of duties — not because compliance makes you, but because well-controlled processes are the ones that scale.
• Comfort with ambiguity. There's no playbook here. You'll write it.
• AI-first mindset. Not a prompt engineer - a Treasury person who wants the model handling data so you can focus on decisions.

Qualifications

• 5–8 years in Treasury / cash management, ideally at a growth-stage or scaling company where you saw the cash structure get built, not just inherited
• Built or run a cash pooling, notional pooling, or in-house-bank structure
• Cash repatriation experience - worked with Tax on dividends, intercompany loans, or capital returns to move trapped cash
• Short-term investment / money-market experience within an investment policy
• Exposure to SOX readiness or IPO prep, even as a contributor
• CTP certification
