More About Your Role
Reporting to the Manager, Credit Collections, you will join a finance group of approximately 50 people. As an experienced collections professional, it won't be the work that surprises you -- it will be the culture. Some of your peers have been with Kawasaki for 40 years, and some ride their Ninjas to work. It's not uncommon to see racing leathers hanging in our cubicles and to spot the press gathering in the lobby for the kick-off of racing season. The excitement that builds in our racing and marketing departments permeates the entire company -- finance included.
Getting down to business, your role will focus on the collection function within three groups: Collection Accounts, Marginal Accounts and Problem Accounts. Each group has a different level of complexity that ranges from routine collection follow-up calls and working with local attorneys on small collection matters, to having confrontational collection calls resulting in the repossession and commencement of a lawsuit.Quick question for you - click here
Keys to Success
Kawasaki always works to promote our dealers and help them to flourish, but in this role, you have to get tough. Diplomacy, objectivity and grace under pressure are all key skills for a collections professional, and they are important here, too. What will set you apart as a "star performer" however, is your ability to consistently perform at a high level, so that you maintain a strong work ethic and build a reputation for dependability.
You will also draw on your well-developed negotiating skills. You will work with a wide variety of dealers, from large dealerships to small "mom and pop" businesses, and your ability to communicate firmly and fairly at all levels will be essential to your success.
If this sounds like the right mix of challenge and opportunity for you, we look forward to hearing from you!
