Payments & Cash Management — Operations Business Liaison

Payments & Cash Management — Operations Business Liaison | German + English

Kraków · Warsaw · Wrocław · Lisbon · Düsseldorf · Frankfurt · or a UK operations hub (Edinburgh / Glasgow) — hybrid Corporate & Institutional / Transaction Banking

Instant payments went live across the euro area. ISO 20022 replaced the old messaging. Every corporate bank now needs German-speaking people who can keep real-time payments clean under pressure — that's you.

We represent a range of corporate and institutional transaction-banking employers building out their payments operations right now, driven by the EU Instant Payments mandate and the market-wide move to ISO 20022. We're building a shortlist of senior payment-operations professionals who can sit between the payment engine and the business — and we place them across onshore DACH, UK operations hubs, and the nearshore centres (Poland, Portugal) where these banks run their payments operations.

Requirements

What you'd own....

• The operational point of contact between payment processing and the business — relationship managers, product, and corporate clients — keeping communication accurate and calm when a high-value payment stalls.
  
• Payment investigations and exception management across SEPA / SCT Inst, TARGET2 and cross-border rails, driven to resolution.
  
• Nostro reconciliation and end-to-end tracking with modern payment-traceability capability.
  
• The sanctions / transaction-screening interface, so control and client experience move together.
  
• Real-time exception and Verification-of-Payee handling on live instant rails, and the operational side of the ISO 20022 (MX) transition.
  

What makes you a fit....

• Fluent German and English — used daily across German-speaking clients and colleagues.
  
• Corporate or wholesale payment operations grounding in a bank or transaction-banking function.
  
• Practical fluency across SEPA, TARGET2 and SWIFT in both MT and MX (ISO 20022) .
  
• A control mindset with genuine client-facing confidence.
  

Nice to have — Eurozone clearing / instant-payment infrastructure exposure; corporate connectivity channels (e.g. EBICS); payment investigations / case-management tooling.

Benefits

Why talk to us (not just one employer)

• We work with several banks and delivery partners in this space — one confidential conversation, multiple environments, onshore or nearshore.
  
• The demand is dated and real (instant-payments and ISO 20022 deadlines), so moves happen fast.
