Job description

About us

We are champions of rail, inspired to build a greener, more sustainable future of travel. Trainline enables millions of travellers to find and book the best value tickets across carriers, fares, and journey options through our highly rated mobile app, website, and B2B partner channels.

Great journeys start with Trainline 🚄

Now Europe’s number 1 downloaded rail app, with over 125 million monthly visits and £5.9 billion in annual ticket sales, we collaborate with 270+ rail and coach companies in over 40 countries. We want to create a world where travel is as simple, seamless, eco-friendly and affordable as it should be.

Today, we're a FTSE 250 company driven by our incredible team of over 1,000 Trainliners from 50+ nationalities, based across London, Paris, Barcelona, Milan, Edinburgh and Madrid. With our focus on growth in the UK and Europe, now is the perfect time to join us on this high-speed journey.

Purpose of the Role

We’re looking for a Senior Treasury Manager to join our finance team in our London Head Office, reporting directly to the Head of Group Reporting, who oversees the Group’s treasury function.

This is an exciting opportunity to build on existing processes while also helping to shape and develop a fit‑for‑purpose treasury function. You’ll play a hands‑on role in the day‑to‑day management of cash and liquidity, while also contributing ideas, improvements, and fresh thinking around processes, controls, and treasury systems.

You don’t need to have done everything exactly this way before. What matters most is a strong foundation in cash management, experience working in a fast‑paced environment, and a willingness to challenge the status quo in a constructive way. This role includes line management responsibility for a graduate accountant and offers the chance to develop your leadership skills further.

This is a global role, supporting cash management activities across the Group in the UK and mainland Europe.

What you’ll be doing

Operational banking

• Owning and developing the Group’s cash strategy and day‑to‑day cash management
• Monitoring Group cash balances and determining debt drawdowns or repayments, sharing insights clearly with relevant stakeholders
• Managing cash flow and covenant forecasting, including making recommendations on funding decisions
• Managing foreign exchange risk and executing trades when required
• Preparing month‑end cash analysis and presenting insights to senior management
• Acting as a key point of contact for internal and external treasury audits
• Building and maintaining strong relationships with our banking partners
• Ensuring banking data is accurate, complete, and well reconciled
• Identifying and implementing opportunities to improve treasury processes

Debt management

• Managing the Group’s Revolving Credit Facility (RCF), including utilisation requests, covenant monitoring, and reporting
• Supporting RCF extensions and refinancing activities within agreed timelines
• Managing bank guarantees, including renewals, new guarantees, and amendments, working closely with banks and internal stakeholders

People and collaboration

• Coaching and supporting one direct report, helping them develop their skills and confidence
• Leading by example and role‑modelling Trainline behaviours
• Delivering regular banking security workshops and training sessions for the wider finance team

Broader contribution

• Continuously improving treasury processes and working collaboratively across the business to strengthen cash forecasting
• Contributing to the development of treasury strategy, including exploring future options for capital allocation
• Maintaining a strong control environment and helping design additional treasury controls where needed
• Ensuring compliance with banking mandates and required documentation
• Keeping up to date with regulatory changes that could impact the Group
• Preparing ad hoc analysis relating to cash, liquidity, and working capital

What we’re looking for

We know that no candidate will tick every box, so if this role excites you, we encourage you to apply even if you don’t meet every requirement.

• A professional qualification such as ACT, ACA, CTA, ACCA, or equivalent, or relevant practical experience
• Previous experience working in a treasury function, ideally in a role with some management or leadership responsibility
• Strong Excel skills and analytical capability (for example: pivots, VLOOKUP, SUMIF(S), INDEX/MATCH — advanced macros not required)
• Experience with ERP systems (such as Microsoft Dynamics 365), Treasury Management Systems, or forecasting tools (e.g. Pigment) is helpful but not essential
• A collaborative communicator who builds positive relationships with internal and external stakeholders
• A proactive, hands‑on approach and the confidence to work independently while supporting others
• Strong attention to detail and a high level of integrity

Why join us?

We’re looking for a team player with a “roll-your-sleeves-up” attitude — someone who is curious, supportive, and motivated to grow. You’ll be joining a collaborative finance team where ideas are welcomed, development is encouraged, and people are trusted to make an impact.

We operate a hybrid model to work and ask that Trainliners work from the office a minimum of 60% of their time over a 12‑week period. We also have a 28‑day Work from Abroad policy.
