I recover overdue debt and improve cash flow for UK/EU client portfolios.
South AfricaWhat I'm looking for
I've managed credit control and finance administration for Thorn Brook Industries, PR Newswire Europe, and my own nationwide training business. I own debtor collections, reconcile accounts, process and allocate payments, resolve invoice queries, and produce aged-debt and KPI reporting for UK/EU and South African clients.
At Thorn Brook Industries, I managed a R4M credit portfolio, achieved 100% collection on balances over 60 days, and reduced DSO by 15 days. At PR Newswire Europe, I recovered up to 97% of historic debt by resolving invoice and purchase-order discrepancies, while building strong relationships with blue-chip clients and internal teams.
