We are seeking a Senior Treasury Analyst to support the Company’s global financial risk management and corporate finance activities, with primary responsibility for developing and executing foreign exchange hedging programs. The role requires deep finance and accounting knowledge to identify and quantify financial exposures, evaluate hedging strategies, execute hedging and spot transactions, assess hedge accounting implications, and support insurance, corporate finance, capital markets, and other treasury projects. This role reports to the Treasury Director, Corporate Finance and Global Credit.
How You Will Contribute:
- Manage financial risk: Identify, quantify, monitor, and report financial risks, with an emphasis on balance-sheet and cash-flow foreign exchange exposures across global operations.
- Develop and execute FX hedging programs: Develop hedging strategies and execute foreign exchange forward, spot, and other approved transactions with global banks through electronic platforms and the treasury management system.
- Prepare risk and hedge reporting: Report foreign exchange mark-to-market and counterparty-risk exposures, prepare hedge documentation, and analyze hedge effectiveness.
- Provide corporate finance analysis: Provide project-based financial analysis supporting capital structure and corporate financing decisions.
- Assist with capital markets transactions: Support debt financing and other capital markets activities through financial analysis, transaction execution support, coordination with banks and internal stakeholders, preparation of materials, and completion of related documentation.
- Support global insurance activities: Assist with global insurance placements, quantify insurance-risk exposures, process applications and claims, and support relationships with insurance brokers.
- Coordinate treasury operations: Coordinate with other treasury operational areas, including cash management and cash investments.
- Support compliance and controls: Assist with applicable global banking regulatory compliance, internal SOX processes, and treasury policy compliance.
The Must Haves:
- 4 or more years of relevant experience in corporate treasury, financial risk management, banking, capital markets, financial accounting, or a related field.
- Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or a related discipline.
- Deep knowledge of corporate finance and accounting principles, including financial statements, cash flows, foreign currency transactions, and the financial-statement impact of treasury activities.
- Strong technical knowledge of foreign exchange markets, derivative instruments, exposure measurement, hedging strategies, mark-to-market valuation, and hedge effectiveness.
- Experience with preparing or supporting hedge accounting documentation and related accounting analysis.
- Advanced analytical and financial-modeling skills, with the ability to interpret complex data and communicate conclusions clearly; Microsoft Excel Macro or Microsoft Copilot skills are a plus.
- Experience with treasury management systems, electronic trading platforms, ERP systems, or market-data tools; Bloomberg skills are a plus.
- Professional qualifications such as CFA, CTP, CPA, or MBA—or demonstrated progress toward one of these professional qualifications—are a plus.
Assets:
The successful candidate will combine deep finance and accounting expertise with strong technical treasury capabilities. The individual should be intellectually curious, highly analytical, and detail-oriented, with the judgment to evaluate complex exposures and transactions independently. The role requires disciplined execution in a control- and compliance-focused environment, strong communication skills, and the ability to translate technical analyses into clear recommendations for stakeholders. Programming or data-automation skills and experience with Oracle, Bloomberg, Kyriba, or another treasury management system are a plus.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding OPT Sponsorship as a Treasury Manager
Target companies with active OPT sponsorship history
Large corporations, banks, and multinational firms file LCAs for Treasury roles regularly. Filtering for employers with a track record of sponsoring finance positions saves time and improves your odds of reaching a hiring manager who understands the process.
Emphasize technical treasury skills on your resume
Employers weighing visa sponsorship want certainty you can do the job. Highlight cash forecasting, FX risk management, TMS platforms, and SWIFT operations. Specific technical skills reduce hesitation and justify the sponsorship investment for risk-averse hiring teams.
Start your job search at least six months before OPT expires
Treasury Manager roles involve multi-stage interviews, offer negotiations, and H-1B visa or E-3 visa filing timelines. Starting early gives you room to pursue multiple offers and align your start date with your remaining OPT authorization window.
Clarify your STEM OPT eligibility with your DSO early
If your degree is in a STEM-designated field like finance analytics or quantitative economics, you may qualify for a 24-month STEM OPT extension. Confirming eligibility with your Designated School Official before interviews helps you present accurate authorization timelines to employers.
Frame your international background as an asset for treasury roles
Treasury Managers handling FX exposure, cross-border payments, or international subsidiaries benefit from candidates with global financial context. Positioning your international experience as directly relevant to the role shifts the sponsorship conversation from a liability to a hiring advantage.
Prepare a clear, one-paragraph explanation of your work authorization
Many hiring managers are unfamiliar with OPT mechanics. Having a concise explanation ready, covering your authorization period, STEM extension eligibility, and typical H-1B transition timeline, removes ambiguity and helps employers make faster decisions without needing their HR team to research it.
Treasury Manager OPT: Frequently Asked Questions
Can I work as a Treasury Manager on OPT?
Yes. Treasury Manager is a specialty occupation that directly aligns with degrees in finance, accounting, economics, or related fields. USCIS recognizes roles requiring that level of specialized knowledge as appropriate for OPT work authorization. Your job duties should match your degree field to remain compliant with F-1 OPT requirements.
Do Treasury Manager roles qualify for STEM OPT extension?
It depends on your degree, not your job title. If your degree is in a STEM-designated field, such as financial engineering, quantitative finance, or applied economics, you may qualify for the 24-month STEM OPT extension. Check the DHS STEM Designated Degree Program List and confirm with your DSO before citing STEM eligibility to employers.
How do I find Treasury Manager jobs that sponsor OPT?
Migrate Mate is built specifically for F-1 OPT and visa-sponsored job searches. You can browse Treasury Manager openings from employers with active sponsorship histories without filtering through roles that won't support work authorization. Searching on Migrate Mate is more efficient than sifting through general job boards where sponsorship details are rarely disclosed upfront.
What visa options are available after OPT for Treasury Manager roles?
The most common transition is H-1B, which requires employer sponsorship and a lottery selection in April each year. Australian citizens can pursue the E-3 visa, which has no lottery and processes faster. Candidates with exceptional records may qualify for O-1A. Your employer's immigration counsel typically guides the petition process once an offer is confirmed.
Will employers sponsor a Treasury Manager role for someone on OPT?
Many do, particularly large corporations, financial institutions, and companies with international treasury operations. Treasury management is a specialized function where qualified candidates are not always easy to find domestically. Employers already accustomed to sponsoring finance roles treat OPT candidates as a standard part of their talent pipeline, especially for candidates with strong technical treasury backgrounds.
