Are you a customer-focused professional with a background in collections and arrears management? Do you thrive in a fast-paced, regulated environment where empathy and clear communication matter? If so, this could be the perfect opportunity for you.

We’re working with a dynamic and growing UK retail bank with deep community roots and an exciting transformation journey underway. The organisation is committed to providing accessible, responsible finance and meaningful customer support – especially when it matters most. Now, they’re looking for a Collections Executive to play a vital role in managing customer relationships, particularly for those facing financial difficulty.

This is a high priority role best suited to candidates who can be available within 1 month.

• Agree affordable and sustainable repayment plans tailored to individual customer needs
• Identify and support vulnerable customers, applying appropriate forbearance strategies
• Handle inbound/outbound calls, emails, and SMS communications related to loans and savings products
• Maintain accurate customer records and ensure full compliance with internal policies and regulatory requirements
• Liaise with internal departments to ensure seamless case handovers and customer experience
• Spot and escalate complex cases, recommending next steps to senior managers
• Support general customer service when needed – we’re a small, collaborative team

What We’re Looking For:

• Proven experience in collections, arrears, or recoveries within a financial services setting
• Strong communication skills with the ability to de-escalate situations and build trust
• Solid understanding of UK financial regulations, especially around customer vulnerability and fair treatment
• Excellent attention to detail and ability to work independently in a hybrid setting
