What you’ll do as a Collections Representative?

You’ll handle out-bound and in-bound calls, set up payment arrangements, counsel our cardholders on their financial situations and use your customer service, communication and influencing skills to figure out why a payment is late and how to fix the situation.

You’ll be the kind of person who can engage and solve problems, as well as proving your analytical skills on a daily basis.
