Profile
I am a responsible, hardworking, conscientious individual with over 15 years’ experience in
credit control roles. I have an excellent track record of achieving results in reducing debtor
levels. I am a very effective and eloquent communicator and am very confident when dealing
with clients. I am known for building and maintaining strong relationships with clients of all levels
which enables me to break down a lot of barriers usually experienced in this kind of role. I have
received various awards and nominations for recognition of my achievements in complex query
resolution and relationship building in a number of my positions.
Prior to my experience as a credit controller, from leaving school, I worked as an Agency
nursing auxiliary nurse working in various care homes and hospitals in my hometown of
Sheffield and then Leeds. For the last 5 years I have overseen the care of both of my parents
through life limiting illnesses therefore only working short term roles due to management of
their care. I am now in a position where I would prefer permanent employment or long term
temporary assignment. (over 6 months).
