Uncapped Earnings | Performance-Driven | Career Growth Are you competitive, goal-oriented, and motivated by unlimited earning potential? Do you thrive in roles where your effort directly impacts your paycheck? If so, this is the opportunity you've been looking for.Join our growing Collection Team, where top performers are rewarded, income is uncapped, and your ability to negotiate, build rapport, and close resolutions can translate into six-figure earnings. This role offers a clear path to income growth, while allowing you to help consumers resolve outstanding balances with dignity, respect, and professionalism. As a Collection Representative, you'll work directly with consumers who have past-due medical balances, guiding them toward practical, mutually beneficial payment solutions.

Why Join Us?

• If you enjoy being measured by results-and rewarded for them-you'll thrive here. This is a performance-based role for individuals who want control over their income, a clear path to success, and a professional environment that rewards effort and results.
• If you're reliably able to work a remote full-time day schedule with undistracted focus, allowing you to progress in your skill and related results and have a private home office space for your exclusive use only, this is a great role to consider.
• If you have great communication skill, are able to adeptly keyboard and type while on accounts with multiple screens at the same time as navigating complex conversations with consumers - we can train you for success.
• If you seek a sense of pride in working for a highly ethical company grounded in a friendly Midwestern culture where career growth from within and employee longevity is the norm (average tenure 6+ years)

Why this role might NOT be for you?

• This is not a good fit for those looking for a secondary job, or who have other regular responsibilities requiring their attention during normal business hours. Company policies prohibit the presence of others in the private home office used by employee during work hours, and company equipment must be secured from others access during non-working hours.
• Because our client's consumers rely on your/our reliability, the ability to plan and stick to a schedule is critical to success for our employees. Unplanned variations from schedule are not able to be routinely accommodated and will typically lead to separation. However, ample PTO and planned make up time is a benefit of this position.
