About the role:

Role Overview

The Kyriba Specialist is responsible for the implementation, expansion, operational support, and continuous improvement of Aztec's Kyriba Treasury Management platform. The role will provide hands-on leadership across treasury technology, banking connectivity, payments, cash visibility, and platform governance, supporting both US and global operations.

The ideal candidate will have hands-on treasury technology and Kyriba expertise, with demonstrated experience delivering Treasury Management System implementations and managing ongoing platform operations across multiple entities, banking relationships, jurisdictions, and client account structures. The role will help create a standardized approach to Aztec's global treasury technology service offering while managing the operational, control, integration, and support requirements associated with US and global accounts.

During implementation, the role will lead requirements, design, configuration, data and interface readiness, bank onboarding, testing, deployment, and transition into production support. Following go-live, the Kyriba Specialist will own platform stability, service management, enhancements, release coordination, user support, and the controlled expansion of Kyriba to additional banks, legal entities, business units, and clients.

• •Promote standardization and reuse of configurations, controls, interfaces, templates, and support processes while managing justified regional or client variations.
• •Ensure new rollouts include ownership, training, documentation, controls, operational readiness, and measurable adoption.

• •Maintain oversight of operational resilience, business continuity, recovery requirements, interface monitoring, data integrity, and third-party dependencies.
• •Provide transparent reporting on delivery status, service performance, risks, incidents, control matters, decisions, and roadmap progress.

Vendor and Stakeholder Management

• •Manage day-to-day relationships with Kyriba, implementation partners, banks, and other third parties, including issues, delivery commitments, service performance, and roadmap discussions.
• •Act as the primary bridge between Treasury and business stakeholders and the Technology teams responsible for architecture, integration, security, infrastructure, data, and support.
• •Facilitate effective governance forums and provide concise, decision-oriented updates to senior stakeholders.
• •Challenge unnecessary customization and promote solutions that are scalable, supportable, secure, and aligned with Aztec's target operating model.
