About the Opportunity
We are working with a leading UK organisation to recruit an experienced Senior Credit Control Consultant to join their finance function on an initial six-month fixed-term contract.
This is a fantastic opportunity for a senior credit professional to join a busy and evolving finance team, providing specialist support during a period of increased workload, finance systems implementation and year-end preparation.
The role is designed for an experienced Credit Controller who enjoys managing complex accounts, resolving challenging issues and acting as a technical point of support within a wider finance function. This is not a people management position; instead, the successful candidate will provide expertise, guidance and hands-on support across complex credit control activities.
The Role
Working closely with senior finance stakeholders, you will take ownership of key areas of the credit control function, including managing high-value client accounts, resolving complex queries and supporting process improvements.
A key element of the role will be managing large and complex customer accounts, including significant debtor exposure, ensuring accurate reconciliations, effective query resolution and maintaining strong stakeholder relationships.
Key Responsibilities
- Managing a portfolio of complex, high-value client accounts, including accounts with significant debtor exposure.
- Building and maintaining strong relationships with key customers and internal stakeholders.
- Taking ownership of complex account reconciliations, investigating discrepancies and resolving outstanding issues.
- Managing and resolving escalated credit control queries and customer account issues.
- Reviewing and resolving Applications for Payment (AFP) queries.
- Investigating timesheet discrepancies and resolving billing issues.
- Managing timesheet split allocations and associated debtor queries.
- Supporting cash allocation processes and ensuring debtor ledger accuracy.
- Assisting with finance systems testing as part of an ongoing implementation, including debtor ledger, self-billing and cash posting processes.
- Performing detailed account reconciliations and supporting the resolution of aged debt.
- Supporting month-end and year-end finance activities.
- Identifying opportunities to improve credit control processes and increase efficiencies.
- Providing technical support and guidance to colleagues within the Credit Control function.
- Acting as a senior point of contact for complex credit-related matters.
- Supporting the wider finance leadership team during a key period for the business.
