You proactively collaborate with our credit insurer regarding credit limit requests and prepare monthly reports on overdue receivables and turnover, as well as damage files when necessary.
You assign internal credit limits when required, based on our internal policy and financial data.
You work proactively with other departments, especially sales and logistics.
You support administrative processes; as a backup, you create customer and supplier records in Navision, process bank transactions, and upload data into customer portals.
In short: you ensure that DESOTEC manages customer receivables in a healthy way and that there is continuous improvement in how this is done. Thanks to your efforts, the DSO (Days Sales Outstanding) for the entire DESOTEC group remains optimal.

You work accurately and in a structured way, are eager to learn, and take ownership. You function well both independently and as part of a team.
You are trilingual (Dutch, English, French); knowledge of German is a plus.
If you can't tick off all the boxes, but you do recognize yourself in our three core values Teamwork, Excellence and Devotion, then we definitely invite you to take a chance and apply!
