If you are a university student preparing for the summer break, this is a chance to gain valuable experience and potentially return for future holidays and busy periods.
At BFS, our customer care and collection specialists help customers who have fallen behind on their repayments get back on track. These conversations can be challenging, but they're also incredibly important. You'll combine empathy, resilience and sound judgement to create practical repayment solutions while helping customers navigate difficult financial situations.
The Role
BFS are looking for 4 university students to join us full time from December through February, with the possibility of ongoing part-time work after summer.
As a Summer Customer/Collections Specialist, you will join BFS’s customer care and resolution team. Where you will get the chance to support a portfolio of customers experiencing arrears and work with them to find a sustainable repayment outcome, as well as working with customers calling in to ask questions and ensuring they receive an answer. In this role you will need to think on your feet, as no two days are the same.
What you'll do
- Contact customers to discuss overdue accounts and repayment options
- Manage inbound and outbound customer conversations professionally and confidently
- Assess customer circumstances and identify suitable solutions
- Review loan information and make informed decisions while customers are on the phone
- Navigate challenging conversations with empathy and professionalism
- Identify risk factors, hardship indicators and escalation requirements
- Maintain accurate documentation and records
- Apply responsible lending obligations, company policies, and compliance requirements
