Credit Policy Manager in Leeds

Job Description Credit control job adverts have a habit of making collecting overdue invoices sound considerably more complicated than it is. So here's the job, you'll be given a portfolio of accounts, and your job is to make sure customers pay what they owe, when they're supposed to pay it. That means picking up the phone, it means sending emails, it means finding out why an invoice that was supposedly being paid last Tuesday still hasn't been paid. If you're good at credit control, none of this will be particularly surprising. You'll manage your own ledger and be responsible for keeping overdue debt under control and helping the business hit its cash and debtor-day targets. You'll chase outstanding invoices by phone and email, keep accurate records of what's happening with each account and make sure promises to pay turn into actual payments. Manage invoice disputes and help negotiate payment Reconcile accounts; Manage credit notes where required Support cash posting and reconciliations Escalate genuine credit risks rather than simply adding another note to the account Maintain proper records and follow the company's credit-control procedures This probably isn't the right job for somebody looking to get their first taste of credit control. You'll need previous experience managing debt in a busy environment and a decent understanding of credit control, sales ledgers and credit-management processes. Occasionally you'll need somebody else's help to get an invoice paid, so being able to build relationships without becoming a nuisance is useful.
