Credit Manager
We have an opportunity for a talented individual to join as Finance Credit Manager in a role that will provide tremendous exposure working across our UK&I businesses.
This is a fantastic opportunity for somebody looking to really impact the business and develop their leadership skills. The role has exposure to senior management stakeholders including Sales Team Leads and Finance Controllers across both Sales and Category teams. The Credit Management team operates as an integral part of the Order to Cash (O2C) E2E, working closely with other parts of O2C right across the customer landscape.
The role will appeal to a qualified accountant seeking career progression in a large organisation, an experienced Credit Manager or a Collections Manager looking to broaden their experience outside of Accounts Receivable.
We take pride in championing inclusion and diversity. We proudly signed the Business in the Community Race at Work Charter, are committed to Disability Confidence, and have been recognised as a Times Top 50 Employer for gender equality for three consecutive years. Additionally, we are a headline partner of Diversity and Inclusion in grocery.
