The Team You Will Join
We count on accounting and finance to deliver far more than just the numbers. Lifestyle Communities’ (LC) Finance team helps us realize our goals and achieve our ambitions by identifying and capitalizing on opportunities to drive value. Treasury sits at the center of that work, keeping cash moving accurately and securely across our communities, development projects, and corporate entities.
Who You Are
As the Treasury & Risk Manager, you will work directly with the Corporate Controller and CFO to own consolidated cash analysis, liquidity allocation, cash flow modeling, payment execution, construction draw administration, debt compliance, banking administration and corporate risk/insurance operations across Lifestyle Communities. You will partner with Accounting, FP&A and Operations leadership to ensure leadership has a clear, forward-looking view of our liquidity position and covenant compliance. This is a hands-on role. You will personally execute daily treasury operations while building the processes, controls and structure that will let the function grow, including future team members.
You possess a deep understanding of multi-entity business operations, cash cycles, and internal controls. As a Manager, you bring strong business judgment, foster cross-functional alignment between Finance, Accounting & Operations and drive continuous treasury process automation as LC expands.
The Difference You Will Make
- Owns the rolling entity-level cash forecasts, turning Finance’s longer-range projections into bi-weekly entity cash flow projections; monitors and reports daily net available cash and presents liquidity needs and funding gaps to the CFO and Corporate Controller.
- Serves as the primary liquidity gatekeeper for bi-weekly disbursement runs, working with Accounting, AP and Payroll leadership; performs final balance verification and decides on intercompany sweeps to prevent overdrafts or rejected payments.
- Owns daily wire and ACH execution in commercial bank portals under dual-control workflows, providing AP with immediate Fedwire confirmation details so payments are marked promptly in the ERP.
- Manages relationships with commercial banks and construction lenders and serves as primary lender contact for draw submissions; tracks draw proceeds, executes sweeps to operating and AP accounts, and notifies AP to release vendor payments.
- Manages debt and covenant compliance: calculates DSCR and leverage ratios, prepares Borrowing Base Certificates and compliance workpapers, maintains the master bank compliance calendar, and flags forecasted shortfalls early with recommended funding solutions.
- Manages consolidated cash allocations, intercompany sweeps, loan interest debits and capital contribution transfers across entities to ensure timely settlement and clean intercompany balances.
- Builds and documents the treasury function, including policies, procedures and internal controls; leads process improvements, API/banking integrations and cash management automation, and helps define future staffing needs.
- Oversees bank account administration, including KYC, resolutions, signature cards, portal user access, entitlements, security tokens and dual-control settings.
- Reviews daily Positive Pay and ACH exceptions to make pay or return decisions; audits monthly bank fee statements and negotiates pricing and services with banking partners.
- Leads fraud prevention and payment security, including vendor bank-change verification, payment controls and response to suspicious banking activity.

Risk Manager Jobs in Ohio: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a risk manager in Ohio?
Becoming a risk manager in Ohio typically starts with a bachelor's degree in finance, accounting, business administration, or a quantitative field. Ohio does not require a state-issued license for most risk manager roles, but professional certifications carry significant weight with hiring managers. The Financial Risk Manager designation from GARP and the Associate in Risk Management from The Institutes are the credentials Ohio employers most consistently request, particularly in insurance, banking, and healthcare.
Which companies hire risk managers in Ohio?
Employers hiring risk managers in Ohio right now include Deloitte, Aon, and CBIZ, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Ohio's high concentration of insurance carriers, regional banks, and large health systems means demand for risk professionals is distributed across multiple industries rather than tied to a single sector.
Which Ohio cities have the most risk manager jobs?
Columbus, Cleveland, and Cincinnati have the most risk manager openings in Ohio. Columbus leads because of the dense cluster of insurance headquarters, regional bank operations, and large healthcare systems based there, while Cleveland and Cincinnati draw demand from financial institutions, manufacturing conglomerates, and hospital networks with substantial compliance and operational risk functions.
Are there remote risk manager jobs in Ohio?
Yes, and more than many fields, because risk management is an analytical and advisory function that translates well to remote work. About 71% of risk manager openings tied to Ohio are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, reflecting the desk-based nature of the role. Enterprise risk, credit risk modeling, and compliance advisory positions are the sub-areas most likely to be posted as fully remote.
How can I get hired as a risk manager in Ohio with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is a lateral move from a directly adjacent role such as financial analyst, internal auditor, or compliance associate at an Ohio bank, insurance carrier, or health system. Large Ohio employers like Nationwide and Fifth Third Bank run structured rotational or associate programs that place candidates into risk functions without requiring prior risk-specific experience. Completing the ARM designation or a GRC platform certification before applying gives a candidate a concrete edge over others at the same experience level.
Where can I find and apply to risk manager jobs in Ohio?
You can find and apply to risk manager jobs in Ohio on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from employers hiring across the state. The listings are updated regularly and cover Columbus, Cleveland, Cincinnati, and other Ohio markets. Find roles that fit your experience and apply directly through each posting.
