- Advising customers on necessary actions and negotiating debt repayment terms, adhering to company process guidelines.
- Demonstrating ownership of results and compliance with federal, provincial, and company policies and procedures.
- Tactfully managing confrontational or stressful interactions, deescalating complaints, and treating customers with integrity.
- Utilizing knowledge of financial contract terms and Equifax reports to effectively communicate with customers and enforce contracts.
- Diligently working through assigned NSF and A/R reports, maintaining detailed customer file notes, and efficiently managing follow-up systems.
- Identifying potential defaulted leases and escalating to senior collectors as necessary.
- Collaborating with supervisors and team members to review accounts, progress, and ensure AR delinquency remains within tolerance levels.
- Providing bilingual assistance to the team when required and undertaking other duties and special projects as assigned by management.
Knowledge, Skills, and Experience Required:
- Fluency in English (written and oral) is essential, with strong French skills considered a significant asset.
- Postsecondary education combined with a minimum of three (3) years of collections experience in the working capital space.
- Proficiency in Microsoft Office applications, Excel, email, and basic internet usage.
- Ability to interpret Equifax credit reports.
- Exceptional organizational and time-management skills with meticulous attention to detail.
- Strong persuasion, negotiation, problem-solving, and conflict resolution abilities.
- Excellent interpersonal and internal customer service skills.
- Capacity to understand customers' needs and problem-solve effectively.
- Proficiency in calculating figures, amounts, interest, and percentages.
- Ability to thrive under pressure, manage multiple tasks efficiently, adapt to changing environments, and uphold strong work ethics.
