Credit Controller

Finance | Up to £26k p.a. | United Kingdom (Remote – but with a London office if you wish to use it)

At Pod Point we’re changing the way people drive. We fundamentally believe that travel shouldn’t damage the Earth so we’ve made it our mission to install a Pod Point (an Electric Vehicle charging point) everywhere you park. To make that vision a reality, we need the brightest, most tenacious and most inspiring talent in the world – we are growing faster than the market and we need to maintain that velocity – that’s where you come in!

The Role

We’re looking for a tenacious Credit Controller to jump on board and help us achieve our ambitious growth goals. The position will report into the Credit Control Manager and will be based remotely (although we have an office near Old Street Station in London that you are welcome to use).

What you’ll do

• Work towards targets to reduce the aged debt value through continuous debt collecting methods
• Be a point of contact for your ledger. Record, escalate and resolve all customer queries with the relevant departments
• Build and maintain strong relationships with customers
• Liaise with other members of the Finance, Sales and Operations teams to resolve issues
• Support the cash forecasting process by advising on expected receipts
• Report on debt positions on a weekly basis
• Ad hoc duties as required

What you’ll need

• 1 year+ experience in a similar role
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills
• To be friendly and approachable
• The ability to prioritise workloads, work to deadlines, and manage your time efficiently
• Strong numerical skills, and a high degree of accuracy with data
• Ability to use analytical skills to reconcile accounts
• Solid Excel skills (you’ll know a VLOOKUP from a SUMIF)

Bonus Points

• Previous experience with, and knowledge of, Sage
• Previous experience with, and knowledge of, Salesforce
• Knowledge of basic accounting principles
• You have a dog (which you’d be welcome to bring into the office, as and when you choose to go in)
• Passionate and knowledgeable about climate change, sustainability and/or the EV industry

And if you’re not sure whether you’re what we’re looking for – send us your CV anyway! We love to hear from people who are passionate about what we do, and we always take the view that a good cultural fit (and mission alignment) is much more important than ticking all the “qualifications, skills and experience” boxes.

Our culture is electric

At Pod Point we like to think we are anything but conventional. We have worked hard to create a rapidly-growing, constantly innovating, flat-structured world, where each employee can see the vital contribution they are making to the company. We knew from the very beginning that a rigid, corporate environment was never going to work for us, and we have stayed true to our word – we’re anything but.

We work hard; we’re not clock-watchers but equally you may find yourself working into the evening very occasionally. In return we’ll pay you well, give you complete ownership to shape the role, give you ground-breaking projects to work on and surround you with fantastic, talented people. We also provide the following benefits:

• Salary Sacrifice Electric Vehicle Scheme
• Flexible working hours and a casual dress code
• Remote first working approach
• 25 days holiday (plus bank holidays)
• Very generous maternity and paternity leave scheme
• Pension scheme
• Eyecare scheme

Remote First

We’re a “Remote first” company, so we conduct all interviews on Google Meet and are pretty good at onboarding new starters remotely (if we do say so ourselves). We do have our dog friendly (!) London office which you will be welcome to use for work if you prefer – although there will be no requirement for you to do so

Final things to note

Pod Point is an equal opportunities employer, although you must be legally able to work in the UK, and any data you provide us will be stored and disseminated in accordance with Pod Point’s Privacy Policy.

We like to deal directly with our candidates so no agencies please!
