The role
We are seeking an enthusiastic, highly motivated Senior Debt Collector experienced in collecting consumer and small‑business (SMB) debts. You’ll contact customers regarding outstanding balances related to parcel deliveries—an emotive context that demands empathy, persuasion, and calm under pressure. You’ll negotiate full payment or sustainable payment plans, perform lawful skip‑tracing when contact data is invalid, and prepare/review pre‑legal documentation for court action when required.
Mission: Recover cash quickly and fairly while preserving brand reputation and customer relationships.
Key Responsibilities
Portfolio ownership: Manage a rolling book of consumer & SMB accounts; prioritise by age, balance, risk, and dispute status.
Contact & negotiation: Reach debtors via phone, SMS, email, and letters; use consultative negotiation to agree payment in full or a compliant instalment plan.
Emotive case handling: Defuse irate customers linked to delivery issues (loss, delay, damage); separate service complaints from debt obligations; escalate legitimate service failures for remediation/credits.
Skip‑tracing: Lawfully locate debtors when numbers/addresses are invalid (open‑source checks, directories, credit‑referencing data available to the company); verify identity before discussing account details.
Dispute resolution: Log, triage, and resolve disputes; gather evidence (proof of delivery, timestamps, photo confirmation, carrier notes) to close disputes and proceed to collection.
Pre‑legal workflow: Draft/review pre‑action notices, statements of account, call notes, and evidence bundles; liaise with internal legal/admin and external counsel; track deadlines.
Compliance & conduct: Follow applicable debt collection, consumer protection, anti‑harassment, and data‑privacy rules for the operating country; adhere to call‑attempt/time‑of‑day limits and disclosure scripts.
Reporting & hygiene: Keep CRM/collections system up to date; log every attempt/contact/outcome; forecast cash; flag systemic reasons for non‑payment.
Continuous improvement: A/B test scripts, contact cadences, and settlement offers; feed insights to Finance, Ops, and Customer Service.
Required Experience
4–7+ years in consumer and/or SMB collections, ideally within eCommerce, logistics, delivery, or utilities/telecoms/fin‑services.
Demonstrated success meeting cash collected, PTP→kept (promise‑to‑pay kept), and days‑to‑collect targets.
Skilled in high‑volume outbound calling with excellent written follow‑ups (SMS/email/letters).
Hands‑on with a collections CRM, dialer/VoIP, payment gateways, and basic spreadsheets.
