Credit Controller

Your new company
Hays are partnering with a leading manufacturing business in Eye, Suffolk to recruit a Credit Controller who can deliver effective collections under tight credit control processes. As this is an urgent permanent recruitment need, we will also consider temporary credit control options.

Your new role
As the sole credit controller, you will work closely with the wider finance team and operations in ensuring the smooth running of the credit function to cover key business metrics including setting up new customer accounts, agreeing credit limits, reviewing risk and ensuring contractual finance obligations are met by the customer and the business. You will manage a broad portfolio of customers regarding collection of outstanding payments, investigating and resolving invoice queries, producing aged debtor reports, monitoring stage payments as per contract terms and highlighting any concerns of non / late payment to the Head of Finance as well as the manufacturing and sales teams.

As an experienced credit controller, you will reconcile customer accounts, allocate cash and support the finance team with accurate cashflow forecasting reports.

What you'll need to succeed
You will be a commercially aware, experienced credit controller who can manage a sales ledger, investigate and collect outstanding payments and follow their strict guidelines for managing the contractual agreements on all production with any agreed amendments updated to ensure smooth payment.

This is a business-critical role in the organisation, covering all aspects of credit collection and associated administration tasks. Any experience of working in a manufacturing sector would be an advantage but is not essential.

What you'll get in return
The organisation offers a salary range of £32,000 - £35,000 depending on experience, working 5 days a week on-site on Eye Suffolk. For more details of the benefits package, contact Andy Jarman on (phone number removed)
