Three ways in.
Find the cash
in two weeks
Liquidity, forecasting, banking, covenants and FX read end to end — closing on a ranked action list with owners, dates and a number against each one.
START HERE →Make the forecast
worth believing
Thirteen weeks, direct method, mapped to real drivers. Vintages kept and variance attributed, so accuracy is measured instead of asserted.
SEE IT WORK →Stand in front
of the lenders
Interim and fractional treasury leadership through refinancing, covenant pressure, a carve-out or a vacancy — accountable from the first week.
TALK IT THROUGH →Same company.
Same cash. Different visibility.
With thirteen weeks installed and every vintage retained, the swings compress as the drivers get mapped. By week 13 the number holds, variance is attributable, and the draw decision is made on evidence rather than nerves.
No discovery phase that never ends.
One call
Forty minutes. If treasury isn't your binding constraint, I say so and we stop there.
Diagnostic
Cash, forecast, banks, covenants, FX. Ends in a ranked list with a number and an owner on every line.
Installation
The forecast and the reporting cadence go in, and run until your team owns them without me.
On call
For the board meeting, the lender call, and the week everything moves at once.
Jim Newman
A sitting corporate treasurer, not a practice fronting junior staff. The person who scopes the work is the person who does it, sits in the lender meeting and signs the memo.
Twenty-five years in corporate treasury, from four different sides of the table: global treasury advisory at Ernst & Young, corporate treasury finance at Bank of America, and then the treasurer's seat itself — Assistant Treasurer at Clariant, a decade at SPX FLOW latterly as Treasurer, and today VP & Treasurer at Hillenbrand.
That range is the point. A liquidity problem looks different to the bank underwriting it, the advisor modeling it and the treasurer who has to fund payroll on Friday. Enterprise liquidity, capital structure execution, FX and rate risk, covenant compliance and global banking strategy — in PE-owned and public environments alike.
If the cash number
changes depending
on who you ask…
Forty minutes, no deck. Bring the question that is actually keeping the quarter open.
