Your new company

A highly regarded insurance business is looking to appoint an experienced Credit Controller to join its finance team. Operating within a fast-paced and professional environment, the business has built a strong reputation for delivering exceptional service to its clients and continues to experience sustained growth.

This is an excellent opportunity for an insurance-sector Credit Controller looking for a fully remote position where they can take ownership of their ledger, build strong relationships with stakeholders and play a key role in maintaining healthy cash flow.

Key responsibilities will include:

  • Proactively chasing outstanding debt by phone and email
  • Managing and reducing aged debt across a high-volume ledger
  • Investigating and resolving payment queries and account discrepancies
  • Allocating cash and reconciling customer accounts
  • Building strong relationships with brokers, clients, and internal stakeholders
  • Producing debtor reports and providing updates to management
  • Escalating problem accounts where appropriate
  • Supporting cash flow and working capital objectives across the business

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

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.
