As a Junior Credit Controller, you will play an important role in helping our Belfast site maintain healthy cash flow, strong customer relationships and smooth day-to-day operations.

You will join a supportive Finance team where you can build practical experience in credit control, customer accounts, payment processes and financial reporting, while developing your skills within a global organisation guided by our purpose of Feeding the Future.
