In this second episode of our Treasury Roles and Developments series, we will discuss how strategic and operational roles differ.

Paul Galloway and Craig Jeffery, of Strategic Treasurer, both weigh in on their previous experiences jumping between the two types of roles throughout the day.

They look at having a proper mindset, developing a digital strategy, and applying the latest treasury technology to solve existing problems.
