We are Siemens Financial Services (SFS), providing tailored financial solutions to drive business models of the future.
Automation, electrification and digitalisation are rapidly changing the way we do business – and the way we live. Our people at SFS help support investments in related technology by offering project finance, equipment and leasing solutions, structured finance, capital loans and advisory services.
Your role as a Collector is to use your negotiation and excellent customer service skills to minimise company losses by collecting all overdue rentals in a timely manner through telephone, letter, and e-mail; chasing overdue rentals and minimising the number of agreements submitted to Legal Recoveries.
The role is based from our Stoke Poges office (near Slough); however, we offer a flexible working policy, with a combination of office and home working to suit your requirements.
You'll make a difference by:
* Minimising customer arrears by chasing debt via telephone, letter, and e-mail, adhering to the collections guideline and UK legislation.
* Maximising recoveries on insolvency cases by quickly establishing if there are any potential buyers for the insolvent company or our equipment (and in cases where there aren't, fast tracking the agreement for termination and uplift of our equipment).
* Resolving customer complaints by involving Siemens Financial Services introducers and internal Siemens Financial Services Sales team members where appropriate.
* Ensuring the customer maintains their rentals while we assist them.
* Adhering to the Collections guidelines to ensure all collections related activity is within specified compliance requirements.
* Escalating any potential issues on agreements whereby the customer holds a high exposure with Siemens Financial Services.
* Meeting all KPI and targets set.
You'll build on your existing skills and expertise, including:
* Excellent communication skills and a positive, team-oriented attitude.
* Able to work well within structured processes with the ability to manage high volumes of cases efficiently and effectively.
* Good knowledge and understanding of UK Insolvency and consumer credit laws is preferred.
* Good negotiation and conflict resolution skills.
* Previous experience within collections is essential for this opportunity.
* Ideally, you will have knowledge of contracts and consumer credit as well as experience of Banking, Leasing or Finance Agreements.
What can we offer?
* Performance-Based Bonus: Enjoy a quarterly bonus linked to individual and team performance.
* Hybrid Working: Achieve a healthy work-life balance with our hybrid working arrangements.
* Pension Plan: Secure your future with our generous pension scheme, with employer contributions up to 10%.
