Are you detail-oriented, organized and passionate about financial stability? Join our team as a Credit Controller to develop, implement and maintain an effective and professional credit control system for the company group.
Duties and Responsibilities
Although there are no set entry criteria, employers will expect you have a good standard of education and they do prefer candidates with a business background - maybe from a BTEC, an HND in Business and Finance or someone with accountancy and banking experience and qualifications.
It's quite common to get started in sales administration, as a debt collector or as a junior member of the credit control team and work your way up from there.
If you are looking for a credit controller or manager's job then you will be expected to have a couple of years on the job experience.
Skills / Attributes Required
You'll need to be firm and organised to work in credit control. Other skills that will help you in the job include:
If you start out as a junior credit controller then you'll learn a lot about credit law and the in-house systems from your more experienced colleagues. You'll probably be sent on courses that will help you get up to speed with litigation and insolvency proceedings.
If you are looking for recognition and promotions then it's a great idea to study for your Institute of Credit Management exams (ICM). You can do this part-time while you are working. If you're not so keen on studying then it's worth knowing that with five years experience in credit management you'll automatically qualify as a member of ICM without having to take the Diploma course.
Ongoing training is as important in this job as it is in any, and you must keep up to date with any changes to the law throughout your career. Again ICM is the best source of information to help you do this as they run lots of short courses for people in the industry.
Join us in maintaining healthy financial stability relationships and ensuring the success of our business. Apply now with your resumes and cover letters.
