This is a fantastic opportunity to become part of one of the UK’s leading investment companies, offering an immediate start and a competitive package.

In this hands-on role, you will proactively manage and recover funds, ensuring customers pay on time and in full.

This position offers real ownership of your ledger and the opportunity to drive process improvements, making it akin to a client account management role.
