This is a great opportunity for someone who already has experience in Credit Control and is looking for a role where they can take ownership of their customer accounts, build strong relationships and continue to develop their career.

About Videcon
We are one of the UK's leading distributors of CCTV, Fire, Access and Intruder products. We supply reliable products backed up by expert technical support and excellent after-sales care.
We've been trading for over 30 years and continue to grow.
So, that's the corporate introduction. Now, let's talk about us.
We genuinely believe our people are the best thing about Videcon. We have colleagues who have been with us for many years, alongside lots of new faces who have joined us over the last 12 months. So, if you're joining us, you certainly won't be the only "new kid on the block".
We're a vibrant team with plenty of different personalities. We're funny, serious, quiet and loud, but one thing we have in common is that we work hard, support each other and have plenty of laughs along the way.
It's a busy office, but it's also a friendly one. Our Directors have an approachable, open-door policy, and you'll regularly see them around the office catching up with colleagues and getting involved in the banter.
We also enjoy getting together outside of work, with company nights out, BBQs, sporting events, Christmas celebrations and other team activities throughout the year.
And yes, we have a fabulous coffee machine, plenty of different teas, breakfast cereals and fresh fruit. Our kitchen is fully equipped with toaster, microwaves and, of course, the staple two-drawer air fryer!
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Our customers are important to us too. We pride ourselves on providing a professional service while building long-term relationships. You might hear colleagues talking to customers about football, holidays or what they've been up to at the weekend alongside the business conversation. We believe strong relationships—both internally and externally—help create happy teams and happy customers.
