About the Role

Hays Accountancy & Finance are delighted to be supporting a well-established business on the outskirts of Bradford in the recruitment of a Credit Controller to join their finance team on a temp-to-perm basis.

Due to continued growth and increased workload, a new opportunity has arisen within the Credit Control team. You'll be joining a supportive team of six and taking ownership of a section of the sales ledger.

Your New Role

As Credit Controller, you will be responsible for managing customer accounts, ensuring timely collection of outstanding debt and maintaining strong relationships with both customers and colleagues. Key duties will include:

  • Receiving, balancing and processing bank payments
  • Allocating customer payments
  • Reconciling customer accounts
  • Investigating and resolving customer queries
  • Obtaining proof of delivery documentation where required
  • Chasing overdue accounts via telephone, email and letter
  • Liaising with the sales team and internal stakeholders regarding overdue balances and account queries
  • Maintaining accurate account records and ensuring sales ledger integrity

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.
