Cash Manager, Treasury

Anthropic•San Francisco, CA

1d•$180,000 - $230,000•Hybrid

About The Position

Anthropic is building Treasury with scale and automation in mind from the start. We're creating modern, well-controlled processes that can grow with the business - supported by strong systems, clear governance, and practical use of AI-enabled tools. We're designing AI-native workflows from day one, with human in the loop, SOX-grade controls built in rather than bolted on. This role reports to the Treasury Ops Lead and owns the company's global cash and liquidity function. You'll run the daily cash desk - positioning, forecasting, funding, and payments, while building the visibility and liquidity structures (pooling, concentration, repatriation) that let a multi-entity, multi-currency company see and deploy its cash as one balance sheet. This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys both execution and process building. You should be comfortable running the daily position while designing the cash architecture the company will run on at 10x scale.

Requirements

You currently own the daily cash position. You log into the bank portals or TMS, you run the position, you set the funding plan, you execute the wires. This is a doing role, not a managing role
Liquidity-native depth. You came up through the cash desk - positioning, forecasting, pooling, intercompany funding, FX settlement. You think in cash flows and funding needs, not just balances
Multi-entity, multi-currency fluency. You've moved money across borders, worked through repatriation constraints, and built (or run) a global pooling or concentration structure
Player-coach DNA. You still do the work - run the position, chase the variance, troubleshoot the wire — while building the system so nobody has to do it manually next quarter
Hands-on TMS experience. You've worked in a Treasury Management System (Kyriba, GTreasury, Trovata, Quantum, or similar) on the cash/forecasting/connectivity side: configured it, broken it, fixed it
SOX in your DNA. You think in audit trails, approval chains, and segregation of duties — not because compliance makes you, but because well-controlled processes are the ones that scale
Comfort with ambiguity. There's no playbook here. You'll write it
AI-first mindset. Not a prompt engineer - a Treasury person who wants the model handling data so you can focus on decisions

Nice To Haves

5–8 years in Treasury / cash management, ideally at a growth-stage or scaling company where you saw the cash structure get built, not just inherited
Built or run a cash pooling, notional pooling, or in-house-bank structure
Cash repatriation experience - worked with Tax on dividends, intercompany loans, or capital returns to move trapped cash
Short-term investment / money-market experience within an investment policy
Worked with bank APIs, SWIFT reporting, or Treasury aggregators (Trovata, Kyriba, or direct connectivity)
Exposure to SOX readiness or IPO prep, even as a contributor
CTP certification

Responsibilities

Own daily cash positioning across all entities and currencies, track balances, consolidate activity, and set the daily funding plan
Direct cash management operations: wire/ACH execution, cash concentration, sweep structures, and cash pooling activities
Build and run the short- and medium-term cash forecast (13-week and beyond), including variance tracking, scenario modeling, and reporting to leadership
Identify and implement strategies to optimize working cash balances and minimize idle funds - right cash, right entity, right currency, right time
Monitor liquidity risk, counterparty exposure, and concentration limits; escalate before they become issues
Build a single global view of cash - consolidate balance and transaction reporting across all banks, entities, and currencies into one source of truth
Partner with the Accounting team to design and manage intercompany funding and settlement processes, including cross-border movement, netting, and documentation
Streamline cross-border transaction flows and optimize cash repatriation strategies in partnership with Accounting, Tax, and Legal
Support pooling / in-house-bank structures as the entity footprint grows
Manage bank relationships from the services side including fee analysis, service reviews, wallet allocation, and connectivity - to get the most out of our banking partners
Design the "Claudification" layer for cash: identify which workflows to be automated, build the automation, keep humans in the decisions that need judgment
Support TMS buy vs build evaluation/implementation with a cash-and-liquidity lens: bank connectivity (SWIFT, APIs, host-to-host), balance/transaction reporting, cash-position and forecast modules
Partner with Finance Systems to simplify and automate cash reporting and forecasting
Own cash and liquidity data quality - the source of truth that positioning, forecasting, and investment decisions depend on
Execute cash processes with strong focus on controls, documentation, segregation of duties, and audit readiness
Support development and maintenance of cash management, liquidity, and ST investment policies and procedures
Document cash-desk controls for SOX readiness - not as a separate project, but as how the work gets done
Partner with Accounting on close activities, cash reporting, and audit requests
