Client Case Studies

Case Study 01

Leeds Manufacturing Firm — Treasury Function Build-Out

Challenge: A Leeds-based mid-market manufacturer with £180M turnover had no dedicated treasury function. All cash management and FX hedging was being handled ad hoc by the CFO, creating significant operational and financial risk.

Solution: Staff Direct sourced and placed an experienced Treasury Analyst with an ACT qualification within 18 days of instruction. The analyst implemented a rolling 13-week cash flow forecast model, established a formal FX hedging policy, and renegotiated credit facility terms with the company’s banking partners.
