Job description

Credit Controller - Permanent
£27,000 - £30,000 p/a (depending on experience)
Hybrid working - 2 days in the office, 3 at home

High Wycombe location (near public transport routes and free parking)

UK residents only. We cannot assist with overseas applications or VISA assistance.

Gleeson Recruitment Group is working closely with one of the most well-established, multi-site clients in the UK, who have over 100 sites throughout the UK. Their centralised finance function is located in modern offices in Buckinghamshire, and they require a Corporate Credit Controller to join their friendly, team-spirited team.

My client can offer training on their in-house systems to the successful Corporate Credit Controller, but this role is ideally geared towards those with existing credit control experience, looking after Corporate accounts. You ideally will have held similar roles within a team environment previously, and if you are able to hit the ground running with limited training, this would be preferred.

Based in their central collections team in their modern High Wycombe Offices, the Credit Controller will be responsible for your own portfolio of customer accounts (approximately 100 live accounts) of a recently acquired business, and you will undertake the following duties, whilst working in an experienced team, reporting to the Credit Supervisor:

1. Actively chase an assigned portfolio to ensure payment to terms and maximise collections in order to achieve monthly and quarterly targets, mainly through email chasing of Corporate Accounts.
2. Communicate with customers daily via email and calls to ensure prompt payment of outstanding invoices and maximise cash collected.
3. Maintain and develop excellent relationships with customers and resolve any queries efficiently and effectively.
4. Handle queries, particularly as many customers are on Direct Debit, necessitating ongoing communication throughout the month.
5. Raise credit notes and re-issue invoices as required.
6. Maintain detailed notes on all accounts and update all relevant systems with the status of outstanding invoices.

This is a challenging, fast-paced Credit Controller position that requires the individual to be extremely team-focused, able to multi-task, and work effectively with all internal colleagues, account managers, sales staff, and admin staff at all times. The ability to work under pressure is essential.

Please contact me for further information on this superb Credit Controller opportunity, where my client can offer modern offices, free parking, and a great working environment. You will be working from home 3 days a week and in the office 2 days per week, with long-term career opportunities available.
