• Improve processes: Identify workflow gaps, policy inconsistencies, and recurring friction points, and help implement practical improvements.
• Automation and AI-enabled workflows: Contribute to process improvements that reduce manual work, strengthen consistency, and improve team efficiency.
• Maintain controls and documentation: Adhere to company policy, internal controls, and documentation standards across all collection activity.
• Serve as a senior team resource: Provide day-to-day guidance, escalation support, and assistance with complex account situations across the broader team.

• 3+ years of direct B2B credit and collections experience, with demonstrated ability to independently handle complex accounts and escalations.

• Clear and effective written and verbal communication skills.
• Highly organized and detail-oriented, with the ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast‑paced environment.
• A proactive, ownership‑driven mindset and willingness to investigate issues that do not have an obvious answer.
• Experience in a subscription, SaaS, or other high-volume B2B environment is a plus.
