Credit Controller

I'm working exclusively with a well-established, market-leading food manufacturing business that supplies some of the UK's biggest household-name retailers. This is a fantastic opportunity for a Credit Controller to join a friendly, supportive finance team where you'll have real ownership, variety and the chance to build strong relationships with both customers and colleagues.

Client Details
