Our team had the pleasure of attending the DACT Treasury Fair, an important event in the Dutch treasury community that brings together industry professionals, thought leaders, and innovators. From reconnecting with long-time contacts to meeting new faces, the event once again proved to be an invaluable platform for networking, knowledge sharing, and discussions about the evolving treasury landscape.

Reconnecting and Expanding Our Network

Alana shared her experience, noting how the event provided a great opportunity to catch up with familiar candidates and update them on our expanding presence in Germany. “Meeting treasurers in person led to some great conversations about how their roles are becoming even more vital, especially in the German market.” The relaxed atmosphere, especially during the networking drinks, made for meaningful exchanges in a more informal setting.

Pieter reflected on his history with the event, recalling his first DACT Treasury Fair back in 2009. “It is very nice to see how the association and the fair remain the pivot of the Dutch treasury community. What I liked then still is there: learning about what is new in treasury and building & maintaining relations. Over time the Fair has gotten better with more modern “fair technologies” and in better venues. Also it is nice that increased diversity with, for example, more nationalities, an increase in Women in Treasury but also other types of treasury providers results in a broader set of topics to discuss. I look forward to what will happen in the next 15 years

Key Takeaways from the Event

One of the highlights for Haia was the chance to discuss market trends and innovations influencing the treasury sector. “Attending the DACT Treasury Fair this year was a great experience. It was great to reconnect with so many familiar faces, both candidates and clients, as well as meet new professionals in the treasury space. Events like these always provide valuable opportunities to exchange insights and strengthen relationships.”

Looking Ahead

DACT is always a key event for us, bringing together great conversations, fresh insights, and plenty of opportunities to strengthen relationships. Each year, it’s clear how much the treasury profession continues to evolve, making these connections even more valuable.

We’re already looking forward to next year and the new discussions it will bring. If we didn’t get a chance to catch up at DACT this time, let’s connect soon!

Why is Finanzsymposium an important event for Treasurer Search?

The German market has shown us the value of events like these. With multiple placements, a growing team, and our GmbH, we consider the Finanzsymposium a key platform to advance our ambitions.

What are our main goals at this year’s edition?

Last year was about making initial contacts. This year, we focus on deepening relationships with 2nd, 3rd, and ongoing connections. While much of our work is done through video meetings, this event allows us to strengthen ties in person.

What are we most looking forward to, especially in connecting with our network?

We are excited about the connections, of course. But what sets Finanzsymposium apart is the quality of the speakers. Our team will not only be networking but also learning from the parallel sessions.

What opportunities does Finanzsymposium offer us this year?

The event allows us to discuss the impact of current demographic trends on the treasury job market. We hope to share insights on what’s working in other countries for securing new talent or finding new opportunities.

When will we be there, and how can attendees meet us?

We will be at stand #80, conveniently located near the coffee area. Feel free to visit us anytime, or if you’d like to reserve a specific timeslot, let us know!

We’re excited to be attending the ATEL Tech Day in Luxembourg! This event brings together treasury and technology experts to explore trends like automation, digital transformation, and how fintech is shaping the future of treasury.

As your trusted treasury recruitment partner, staying informed on these trends ensures we connect you with the best professionals in treasury.

Why is ATEL Tech Day important for Treasurer Search?

Attending the event is a great way to invest in the two most important aspects we distinguish ourselves from generalistic recruiters.

The first is knowing what is hot in corporate treasury and informing our colleagues about this. A professional organisation like ATEL and her partners informing us about treasury tech sounds great.

Second, we maintain warm relations with companies and treasurers we hope to be important to. With a growing number of assignments in Luxembourg, this is a great moment to (re-)connect to the local treasury network so we can better identify who to inform about great assignments or available potential employees.

Of course treasury tech has an increasing impact, is constantly changing, and is not only for IT people to follow. It is hard to see the forest for the trees and an event like this is an excellent opportunity to get informed.
