Job description

Credit Controller - 5 Month Contract

Birmingham City Centre | Up to £32,000 | Free Parking | Immediate Start

We are currently recruiting for an experienced Credit Controller to join a busy finance team based in Birmingham City Centre on an initial 5-month contract, with the potential for a longer-term opportunity.

This is a fast-paced, high-volume Credit Control role, so we’re looking for someone who is confident managing a busy ledger and, importantly, is comfortable picking up the phone and making a high volume of outbound calls throughout the day.

You’ll need to be proactive, resilient and confident having conversations around outstanding debt. This role would suit someone who enjoys working at pace, takes ownership of their ledger and isn’t afraid to get on the phone to customers to resolve issues and secure payment.

Key Responsibilities

• Managing a busy portfolio of customer accounts and proactively chasing outstanding debt by telephone and email
• Building strong relationships with customers and internal stakeholders
• Resolving invoice and payment queries quickly and efficiently
• Monitoring aged debt and prioritising overdue balances
• Supporting the wider finance team as required

What We’re Looking For

• Previous experience working within Credit Control
• Comfortable spending a significant proportion of the day on the phone chasing outstanding debt
• Experience working within a busy, high-volume environment
• Confident and professional telephone manner
• Proactive, resilient and able to work at pace
• Good Excel skills, ideally including PivotTables and VLOOKUPs
• Available immediately or at very short notice

This is a great opportunity for an experienced Credit Controller looking to join a busy finance function, with scope for the opportunity to develop beyond the initial 5-month contract.

If you’re an experienced Credit Controller who thrives in a fast-paced environment, enjoys getting on the phone and is available to start at short notice, we’d love to hear from you.

Please note all candidates must have the full right to work in the UK to be considered
