Carolina V.

Head of Treasury Iberia & Latam @ NTT DATA Europe & Latam

About

With 20+ years leading treasury functions across EMEA and LATAM, I specialise in turning treasury into a strategic driver of business value I've built and scaled treasury operations at companies like NTT Data, PayU, Crehana, ABInBev, and Kimberly-Clark, covering cash management, FX risk, liquidity optimisation, and TMS implementations (IT2, XRT). My work has delivered measurable results: a $42M improvement in working capital, $1M in annual banking fee savings through RFP processes, and cash flow forecast accuracy gains across 15+ countries. I'm a Certified Treasury Professional (CTP) with an MBA from HEC Montréal. I thrive in complex, multi-entity environments, whether that's integrating treasury post-M&A, designing cross-border cash pooling structures, or building teams from scratch in fast-moving fintech startups. Beyond the numbers, I invest in the people on my team, mentoring treasury professionals to take ownership, grow their careers, and raise the standard of what treasury can deliver. 📍 Based in Madrid | Open to global senior treasury roles | English · Spanish
