Experienced credit controller available immediately

Date posted: Monday 5th October
Location: Reading

With 15 years experience and a proven history of reducing DSO and aged debt, I am passionate about my role as a credit controller and thrive on making a difference.

Having just come to the end of a temporary contract for the last 3 months, I am available immediately and I am happy to provide a CV with written references.

Short summary of my achievements:

- When I joined my last company, 14% of the total ledger was over 60 days old.
- In my first month I reduced this to 10%, the following month in August I reduced this to 6% and at the end of September, results showed that only 3% of the total ledger was over 60 days old. The monthly target was 10%.
- Reducing DSO from 65 to 46 days over an 18 month period in a difficult industry known for difficult debt.
- I was involved in a project that was the result of a £million payment.
- On several occasions I have set up the credit control function from scratch and had sole responsibility. I have a strong knowledge of procedures.
- During a project that involved legal action, I collected payment for a debt that was almost 2 years old.

I have attended credit control courses that include debt recovery through the courts and negotiation skills.

Packages used are:

- Excel
- Word
- Access
- SAP
- Great Plains
- Outlook and Lotus Notes
And other bespoke packages

I am looking for an exciting opportunity to be part of an excellent company that values their customers and delivers fantastic customer service.
