How do you go from a Graduate Trainee to a Group Treasurer at a major multinational company?

In this episode, Declan Ware, Group Treasurer at EMR (European Metal Recycling Group), shares his journey through the treasury world, the challenges he faced, and the lessons he learned along the way.

If you're interested in career growth, global treasury operations, risk management, and relationship building in finance, this episode is a must-listen.

Declan Ware is the Group Treasurer at EMR, a global leader in sustainable materials recycling with operations across the UK, US, Germany, and the Netherlands. With almost 20 years of experience in corporate treasury, Declan has navigated treasury operations across multiple markets, managed financial risk, and led key funding and liquidity strategies at EMR.

Main topics discussed:

  • Declan’s journey from a finance graduate at BNFL (British Nuclear Fuels Plc) to discovering the impact of treasury on global business.
  • His move to EY’s Infrastructure Advisory team, why he explored practice, and what brought him back to corporate treasury.    
  • How Declan joined EMR, grew with the company, and navigated treasury challenges over 16 years.
  • Why treasury is more than cash management, influencing business strategy, financial planning, and operational success.
  • The key foreign exchange, commodity, and market risks treasury professionals must manage in multinational companies.
  • How sustainability (ESG), compliance, and economic volatility are reshaping the treasury landscape.
  • Why networking, banking partnerships, and internal collaboration are crucial for treasury professionals.
  • The impact of AI, automation, and increasing compliance requirements on the future of treasury operations.

You can connect with Declan Ware on LinkedIn.
