Wanted: Honours Graduation Internship in Finance, Control or Treasury

| 10-11-2017 | Nick de Wilde & Laurens Schumacher | Minor Treasury Management |

 

The University of Applied Sciences in Utrecht gives business economics students the opportunity to follow the minor Treasury Management. Two students that are following the programme at the moment are looking for a company where they can follow their Honours Graduation Internship.
Does your organisation have an opportunity?



Dear Treasurers,

We, Nick de Wilde and Laurens Schumacher, are looking for an internship for the period of February 5th to June 29th, 2018. We are currently in our last year of our business economics study at the University of Applied Sciences Utrecht and are following the minor Treasury Management. So far, we both have been very successful in our business economics education. Both of us are taking part in the Honours Graduation track in which we are taking on a challenging assignment as a duo. The internship consists of 60% working in the company (at the financial administration) and 40% working on the assignment. We prefer an assignment in the direction of Finance, Control or Treasury but we are open to any other suggestions.

If you are interested in facilitating us with a challenging internship, feel free to send us a message to [email protected] & [email protected] or join us on Linkedin.

Introduction core team Treasurer Development

| 19-10-2017 | treasuryXL  | Treasurer Development |

Earlier we informed you about the Treasurer Development initiative. The members of the core team of Treasurer Development aim to contribute to raising the professional level of corporate treasury and increase acceptance and recognition of corporate treasury. Starting point for them is the treasurer as a person.

 

In the kick off meeting a core team was created; these are the members:

  • Janneke Nonkes, former group treasurer and coach
  • Robert Dekker, manager of the post graduate Register Treasurer program at the Free University in Amsterdam and treasury consultant at KPMG
  • Frans Boumans, responsible for the minor treasury management program at the University of Applied Sciences in Utrecht and former banker
  • Pieter de Kiewit, recruitment consultant and owner of Treasurer Search

All core team members work independently in this initiative. They do not represent each other or treasuryXL as a core team member. They aim to inspire, inform and deliver positive criticism. The opinions expressed by a member of the core team are attributed to that person and these opinions are independent and not necessarily shared and/or endorsed by all the other members. treasuryXL  is the communication platform for Treasurer Development. Blogs, discussions, round table meetings, curriculum build-up and adviser are all results that can and will be the result of Treasurer Development.

First initiative coming from Treasurer Development is a cooperation between Frans Boumans and treasuryXL. All of us will start blogging on related topics. Janneke and Pieter will develop a free of charge telephone quick scan in which treasurers can brainstorm about their career development. Robert will inform you shortly about curriculum developments in the Register Treasurer program. Both the Hogeschool Utrecht and the Vrije Universiteit will want to brainstorm with you about guest lecturing, internships and graduation projects.

So far, the first responses on this initiative are very positive. We are open for suggestions and look forward to informing you further.

Minor Treasury Management at Hogeschool Utrecht increasingly successful

| 15-8-2017 | Pieter de Kiewit | treasuryXL |

In July 2017 our expert Pieter de Kiewit wrote an interesting article about the minor treasury managment of Hogeschool Utrecht (University of Applied Sciences).
Hogeschool Utrecht started with this program three years ago and Pieter had been asked by Frans Boumans, lecturer and researcher at Hogeschool Utrecht,  to contribute to create the curriculum. Pieter also assisted in finding both guest lecturers and companies providing internships. He will give a presentation to students about labour market opportunities for treasury experts on September 20th, 2017. In his article Pieter continues:

Programs like these do exist at universities in Europe and other countries. The university of Chicago has a strong reputation and we recruited two candidates from France with an extensive academic treasury curriculum. In the Netherlands the Register Treasurers post graduate program is the obvious academic way to go for a treasurer. You can only enter with experience and a degree. Graduating at master level in treasury in the Netherlands is not (yet?) organised.

By now, the Hogeschool Utrecht program has more applicants than seats. Students, not only from Utrecht, but also from other cities enroll. Their backgrounds vary from accounting, audit to business control. They find positions in SMEs, bigger corporates and the financial services industry. Recently Treasurer Search found a permanent position for a graduate with a treasury minor (again). Before we did not recruit graduates as our focus did not match the Dutch educational system. Graduates with treasury expertise were hardly available.

As from September we will continue our cooperation. Together with the people of treasuryXL we will create a brief survey in order to find out what is “hot in corporate treasury”. The results of this survey will be used to have student write papers. Interesting stuff! If you want to contribute or know more about this program you can contact Frans directly ([email protected]) or through Treasurer Search. The structure is set but for good input there is always room.

I hope all this is the preparation for an academic treasury track in The Netherlands. Time will tell.
