Senior Credit Controller

If you're looking to step into a strategic credit role where your ideas won't just be heard, they'll shape how the business operates - this could be the opportunity you've been waiting for. Work with a respected, family-run logistics group with a rich 100-year heritage. Still led by the founding family, the business blends tradition with modern ambition and is now looking for a Senior Credit Controller to take ownership of its credit strategy and lead change from the front. This is a full-time, office-based role, offering flexible working hours and a genuine path to management within 1–2 years.

Reporting to the Finance Director, you will be responsible for:

• Managing the credit control process, chasing debt via phone, email and letter
• Allocating payments and maintaining the sales ledger
• Reviewing credit terms, setting limits and establishing payment plans
• Producing and reviewing debt reports
• Rewriting and improving existing credit policies and procedures
• Driving change and new initiatives, including the rollout of direct debit options across divisions

What you will need:

• Previous experience in a similar role, such as Senior Credit Controller / Credit Controller / Credit Control Clerk / Sales Ledger Clerk / Accounts Receivable Clerk
• To be a confident decision-maker, comfortable with challenging the status quo
• Able to build rapport with customers and colleagues
• Experience with SAP is useful but not essential

What you will get:

• Flexible working hours
• 25 days annual leave plus bank holidays
• Medical cash plan
• Life assurance
• Company bonus
• Free onsite parking

Beyond the benefits, you’ll be part of a warm, collaborative team where people tend to stick around - many for decades. New ideas are welcomed, not just heard and you'll have the full support of the leadership team to drive improvements and shape the future of credit control in the business.
