We're looking for an experienced Credit Controller to take ownership of a portfolio of around 600 active customer accounts. This is a relationship-led, credit control role where you'll drive consistent cash collection while protecting account relationships, working closely with our Sales and operational teams to resolve queries and keep accounts on track.
You'll be trusted to spot risk early, influence internally, and prevent debt from escalating.
What You'll Be Doing
Own an account ledger, driving timely payment and maintaining strong account relationships.
Monitor ledger performance (DSO, aged debt, dispute volumes) and take proactive action.
Manage and resolve billing queries/disputes, working across internal teams to remove blockers to payment.
Process and allocate payments (including card and cheque) accurately.
Maintain clear, accurate notes and records in CRM/systems.
Flag risks early and agree practical next steps with internal stakeholders and customers.
Who We're Looking For
Proven experience in credit control.
Confident communicator who can influence and handle payment conversations professionally.
Strong problem-solving skills - comfortable investigating root causes, not just chasing debt.
Organised and resilient: you can prioritise, stay on top of activity, and follow through.
Strong attention to detail and confident with systems/Excel (or similar).
