Your Consultant
Are you an experienced Credit Controller looking for a role where you can take ownership, build strong relationships, and make a genuine impact on business performance?
Talent Finance is delighted to be partnering with a successful and growing organisation based in Gillingham.

You’ll be responsible for managing your own portfolio of accounts while working closely with colleagues across the business to support cash flow, customer relationships, and continuous improvement initiatives.
The Role
As Senior Credit Controller, you will take full ownership of a customer ledger, ensuring timely cash collection, maintaining positive customer relationships, and supporting the wider finance team.
