Job description

Join our growing finance team as a Collections Manager playing a vital role within the firm.

We are looking for an experienced Collections Manager to join our busy finance team in either our Edinburgh or Glasgow office. Engaging with colleagues throughout the whole firm, this position offers an excellent chance to gain insight into the firm and our clients, interacting with a wide range of people every day.

You will be responsible for the direct line management of the credit control team, ensuring efficient collection of our invoices.

We’re looking for someone with prior experience in a similar role, who has people management experience and excellent team collaboration and communication skills. Proficiency in Excel is essential.

If you thrive in a multifaceted role in which you can grow and make it your own then apply now!

At the heart of Burness Paull is our independence.

It’s this that gives us the licence to shape our business and culture in the sustainable way we want to, supporting the needs of our people, our clients, our wider community and the environment. It means freedom to pursue a philosophy of always being human in attitude and high-performing in approach.

For our people that means recognising everyone is different and valuing those differences. A culture that celebrates openness and where genuine advice and relationships are championed. An environment that encourages everyone to aim for success by being the best version of themselves.

And because we value the contribution that every one of our team makes, we make sure everyone is rewarded over and above the usual benefits you'd expect from a leading law firm. That means bonus schemes for all employees, family-friendly policies that stand out in the market, and a range of health & wellbeing initiatives that take a holistic approach to supporting colleagues.

We set the bar high. Our clients and people love that.
