  • Are you a confident and experienced Collections professional with a passion for solving complex billing and debt management challenges? We're partnering with a leading telecommunications and technology provider to find a driven Collections Officer to join their high-performing Enterprise Credit team.

    About the Role
    This is not your average Collections role. As an Enterprise Collections Officer, you’ll take end-to-end ownership of a high-value customer portfolio, managing accounts with a monthly billing value of up to $250M. Your role will be central to resolving complex billing disputes, improving cash flow, and strengthening customer relationships across large enterprise and mid-market clients.

    You’ll work closely with internal teams and senior-level external stakeholders to manage collections, dispute resolution, hardware order approvals, and billing process improvements. This role requires a mix of strategic thinking, stakeholder management, and hands-on expertise in financial systems and enterprise credit processes.

    Key Responsibilities

    • Manage collections across a portfolio of up to 3,500 financial accounts, with monthly revenues of $25M–$30M
    • Resolve billing disputes and prevent recurrence through root cause analysis and process improvements
    • Support hardware order approvals and assess risk in alignment with customer credit profiles
    • Maintain high-level internal and external stakeholder relationships to drive timely collections outcomes
    • Liaise with Sales, Legal, Billing, and Finance teams to align on billing expectations and resolve complex issues
    • Participate in projects that impact billing and collections systems, providing insights and UAT support where needed
    • Report on aged debt, revenue risks, and dispute status to senior management
    About You
    You’re someone who thrives in a fast-paced, analytical environment and can confidently manage large financial portfolios. You are a natural communicator, problem-solver, and negotiator with a strong commercial mindset and a passion for improving processes.

    Must-have skills and experience:
    • Minimum 5 years’ experience in a credit or collections role within a large, complex organisation (ideally telecom, utilities, or financial services)
    • Strong understanding of enterprise billing systems and credit risk management
    • Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to liaise effectively at all levels
    • Proven experience managing high-value disputes and influencing outcomes across multiple departments
    • Strong analytical skills with the ability to interpret data and deliver actionable insights
    • Proficiency in systems such as SAP, SingleView, Power BI, or similar platforms
    Nice to have:
    • Experience working on systems change or digital transformation projects
    • Knowledge of telecommunications products and customer lifecycles
    • Exposure to B2B or enterprise-level credit operations
    Why Apply?
    • Join a reputable industry leader at the forefront of innovation
    • Work in a dynamic team that values ownership, collaboration, and continuous improvement
    • Hybrid working model based out of stunning offices in Melbourne’s CBD
    • Exposure to large-scale accounts, strategic projects, and influential stakeholders
    • Opportunity to grow and make a real impact across enterprise operations
