Job description

About You.

• Are you a curious person who is comfortable asking questions?
• Have you previously worked in a role where you dealt with customers over the ‘phone?
• Do you have strong IT skills?
  
  

About The Role.

We’re now looking for someone to join us as a Credit Controller. This role involves supporting our customers on a day-to-day basis, answering questions that they may have as well as understanding why customers have fallen into arrears; ensuring that we provide them with the most appropriate solutions to help them to manage their finance agreement with us.

We are looking for someone who enjoys talking to customers and who is inquisitive. You’ll have strong communication skills and along with the rest of our Credit Control team, will focus on good customer outcomes; you’ll have the ability to recognise that sometimes, delivering the right customer outcome involves making those more difficult decisions where it is evident that the agreement is no longer affordable for the customer.

Responsibilities

• Manage a daily queue system of allocated accounts.
• Contact customers where they have arrears via telephone, email, text and letter to determine their situation, primarily focused on obtaining payments or agreeing a repayment plan (where appropriate) in keeping with company policies and customer affordability.
• Offer alternative forbearance options to customers where a repayment plan/payment is not the right option for the customer.
• Respond to customer letters, text and email queries.
• Liaise with debt management agencies where appropriate.
• Take manual payments over the telephone.
• Take inbound calls from customers regarding their agreement.
• Liaise with other departments where necessary in order to effectively manage situations.
• Review customer credit files information.
• Any other adhoc duties
