Job Description:
We have a new opportunity in our Finance team for a Credit Controller to join us on a hybrid basis out of our Cambridge office, with the expectation of attending a minimum of two days a week.
As a Credit Controller you will own an effective and professional credit control process for a designated portfolio, driving cash collection and reducing aged debt across a rapidly expanding, world-class company. You'll work within the credit control team and alongside finance, sales and operational colleagues globally — protecting good credit control outcomes while keeping customer relationships strong.
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.
No two days are the same, and you'll be balancing multiple priorities at once, so strong communication, superb time management and excellent attention to detail are key.
Day to day you'll be:
- Monitoring cash collection of outstanding balances within your allocated portfolio and working towards monthly collection targets,
- Following our credit control procedures — issuing customer statements and dunning letters, contacting customers by telephone using the correct protocol, and following the internal escalation process where needed,
- Answering customer queries and ensuring a timely, professional response,
- Allocating customer payments and maintaining the debtors spreadsheet,
- Establishing and maintaining effective lines of communication with sales and technical teams globally,
- Supporting the wider finance team on projects to improve cash collection, plus ad-hoc tasks as required.
Candidate Requirements
Darktrace warmly welcomes applications from candidates with previous credit control experience, or translatable customer service experience, and who are educated to A level or equivalent. You'll bring excellent numeracy and administrative skills, and be confident addressing and escalating matters with colleagues to resolve underlying issues.
It's likely that you'll also have:
- Proficiency in Excel, Word and Microsoft Outlook,
- A highly organised approach, with excellent attention to detail and the ability to prioritise and work unsupervised,
- An excellent telephone manner and effective communication skills,
- A helpful, flexible and proactive attitude — a team player who is happy to tackle both new and routine tasks.
