A credit controller often works for a companies that purchase debts and process collections in behalf of a creditor. These companies may specialize in commercial collections from business or consumers. A credit controller may also work directly for a company, operating through their finance department to recover late payments from debtors. They communicate by phone, letter, or email, using computer databases of credit records. If they cannot collect a debt for any one of various reasons, they may initiate legal proceedings against the debtor.
To work as a credit controller, you need a minimum of a bachelor's degree in accounting, finance, business, mathematics or a related field.

To be successful in this role, an individual must be detail-oriented and possess basic computer processing skills.
