Trésorier groupe H/F

Rigorous leadership needs to be demonstrated given the strategic position of the Group Treasury Department within ASN, a strongly international industrial company exposed to FX and commodities risks.

As part of his/her position, the Group Treasurer will be in direct contact with the other units of the finance organisation such as taxes, controlling, insurance and central and local accounting.  He: She will be accountable for all the treasury activities and namely:

1. Risk management (90% expertise expected): due to ASN’s complex operational activities necessary to support the execution of our 3 to 5 years construction contracts, the Group Treasurer oversees the assessment, validation and hedging the Group’s exposure to FX, IR and Commodities risk. It includes being able to manipulate extensive data and information and being familiar with FX, IR and Commodities derivatives, including recognised experiences in pricing and execution.

2. Accounting (70% expertise expected): because of the central position of the Group Treasury within ASN, the Group Treasurer will be accountable for monitoring and justifying the financial result of the Group in coordination with the accounting Director. The Group Treasurer must demonstrate strong knowledge of accounting treatments of financial instruments (Fair Value and Cash Flows Hedges strategies) under IFRS norms.

3. Systems and interfaces (70% expertise expected): ASN’s treasury department has started an important transformation project encompassing processes, interfaces and tools. This project aims at rendering the Group Treasury operationally autonomous from NOKIA. It involves rethinking all the interfaces between the existing financial tools and the TMS by designing and implementing more efficient and reliable solutions. This challenging project is sponsored by the Group CFO and led with the support of external consultants. Once the tools are implemented, the Group Treasurer will be accountable for ensuring their level of efficiency with the help of the Middle Officer and external consultants.

4. Cash Management (60% expertise expected): the purchasing of ASN by the APE leads the Group Treasury to strengthen its capacity to monitor and produce more reliable cash forecasts on different periods. It will imply check crossing data from different sources (controlling, accounting, treasury, etc.) and systems. The coordination of the cash forecast will require a strong involvement of the treasury department into the business understanding in order to take appropriate actions regarding the financing strategy (short and long term).

5. Banking Communication (60% expertise expected): as part of its international activities, ASN deals with beneficiaries all around the word. The Group Treasurer should be able to rely on a strong expertise in SWIFT payments messages (XML pain format and MT101). He/she will be responsible - with the help of the Back Office- to identify any payment rejected and take appropriate action to re -issue the payment (including reviewing interfaces or challenging SAP developer team).

6. Reporting and Middle Office activities (50% expertise expected): risk management activities and accounting closing require the production of different reports. The Group Treasurer- with the help of the Middle Officer-will be responsible for controlling and assessing these reports bringing accurate and critical information to drive ASN’s cash. He/ she will also review and ensure that the Group policies on treasury and risk activities are being followed. He/she will be the first point of contact for these topics with Group auditors.
