Group Treasury Lead

Description

We are Two Circles. We are a Sports & Entertainment Marketing business. We grow audiences and revenues. We do that by knowing fans best.

We work with clients to help them understand and influence what their fans are doing – the way fans spend their money, the events they attend, the channels they respond to and the content they watch. We use that understanding to help our clients grow: growing both their audiences and their revenues, across direct-to-consumer and business-to-business streams.

Our platforms and services are trusted by over 900 clients globally, including the English Premier League, UEFA, the NFL, Red Bull, VISA, Nike and Amazon. We are almost 1,000 people, based across 14 offices, delivering work for sports and entertainment businesses of all shapes and sizes around the world.

We are hiring a Group Treasury Lead to own treasury across the Group, with primary accountability for liquidity, cash generation, leverage discipline, and funding resilience.
