Your new company
Your new company is the specialist arm of a Lloyd's of London insurance company, based in the Centre of London. They operate a hybrid work policy; 3 days a week you will be based at their beautiful new offices in Central London, while 2 days a week you will be free to work from home. Due to the growth of the firm, they are flexible on the seniority of their new starter. This could be an ideal second job for an up-and-comer or a great step up into a management position for someone more established in their career.
Your new role
The company is in a period of rapid growth, and looking to bring in a new Credit Controller on a permanent basis. The role will focus on collecting overdue payments and establishing relationships with aged debtors and insurance brokers alike. Other aspects of the role include:
- Using Excel to produce aged debtor reports.
- Sending invoices to clients and liaising with adjusters to help deal with any billing queries.
- Producing month end reports around aged debt, monies received and progression of queries.
- Collecting from insurance brokers and handling IBA accounts.
What you'll need to succeed
The successful candidate will have at least 2 years of experience working for an insurance company within the Lloyd's of London market, and have a proven history of building relationships, displaying their ability to influence others to a positive outcome. You will need to have a strong working knowledge of Excel, able to perform sum-ifs, V-lookups and pivot tables. To succeed in this role you will need a strong work ethic and be personally driven to answer queries and collect payments. You will be well-organised and have the discipline to work well in a solo position. This is not a debt collecting position, this is for an individual who develops a rapport, based on respect and mutual trust, with their customers and clients.
What you'll get in return
In return, you will receive an above market-rate salary, plus a 10% bonus (5% based on individual targets and 5% based on the targets of the company). You will also have the chance to work from home twice a week. This is also a great opportunity to join an already established firm while in the process of going through an ambitious period of rapid growth.
