Project Credit Controller - 1 day per month in London office

Description:

I am currently working with a high growth client of mine, who due to a series of recent acquisitions and an upcoming ERP roll out, are looking to bring on a credit control contractor for a twelve month period to manage a ledger of key accounts while the manager is on secondment.

They are looking for a highly motivated individual with a genuine flair and enjoyment of relationship building and external stakeholder management, but also someone who enjoys the more technical side of credit control too, with strong Excel skills and ideally some prior experience of netting as an added bonus.

The role will be almost entirely home based with a day month in the office which is based in the City of London. To be a good fit you will need to be able to do this commute when required.

The rate given is also via an umbrella company.
