Credit Controller – Join a Friendly, Supportive Finance Team
Bourne | Office-Based (2 Core Days Between Tues–Thurs in office)
£27,000 – £29,000 | Full-Time, Permanent
 
Interviews starting from next week!
 
At Anne Corder Recruitment, we’re delighted to be recruiting on behalf of our client for a Credit Controller to join a well-established finance team based in Bourne.
This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who is confident, motivated, and enjoys combining strong customer service with the detail and discipline of credit control. You’ll be stepping into a friendly, collaborative team where the current postholder is approaching retirement—but has kindly agreed to stay on and support the handover.
 
What you’ll be doing:

• Proactively chasing and collecting payments across the sales ledger via phone, email, and letter
• Reconciling accounts – especially high-volume, high-value key customers
• Processing card payments and resolving invoice disputes
• Managing credit limits and ensuring alignment with internal policies and credit insurance
• Spotting changes in payment patterns and raising any concerns
• Collaborating with finance colleagues and other departments to deliver a high standard of service
• Supporting the wider team with ad-hoc reporting and training where needed

What we’re looking for:

• A team player who is personable, willing, and quick to learn
• Someone who takes a firm but fair approach when dealing with customers
• Strong attention to detail with the ability to spot discrepancies and resolve issues
• Good working knowledge of Microsoft Office, particularly Excel
• Ideally, experience in a similar credit control role (5+ years desirable, but not essential)

Flexible working:
 
This role is office-based, with flexibility to work from home once up and running. Core office days fall between Tuesday and Thursday.
 
Why apply?

• Be part of a supportive and stable team with great knowledge and leadership
• Step into a role with a clear handover and onboarding support
• Interview process designed to be straightforward – with first stage via Teams and second stage in-person
