πΌ The Position
As a Collections & Recovery Analyst at LIZY, you are the person who makes sure our clients meet their financial obligations, and who takes swift, structured action when they don't.
This is not a back-office processing role. You will be on the phone with clients across Belgium π§πͺ, France π«π·, and the Netherlands π³π±, assessing situations, making judgment calls, and coordinating with external parties (bailiffs, lawyers, and debt recovery partners) to protect LIZY's financial position across three markets. You know how to be firm without being aggressive, and you understand that every case is different.
You will join a role with a genuinely broad scope, three countries, three legal frameworks, and different recovery dynamics in each. You won't be figuring it out alone or starting from scratch, LIZY already has a solid collections process in place, and the Finance Manager, Credit Manager, and wider finance team carry deep credit and recovery experience across all three markets and will actively guide you as you further build out and refine the function, including opportunities to bring in automation and AI.
For the right person, this is a rare opportunity to grow fast, develop multilingual, multi-jurisdictional expertise few profiles at this stage get access to, and shape how LIZY handles collections across its entire European footprint.
β What youβll be doing
Proactively follow up on unpaid invoices via phone, email, and written communication, across our Belgian, French, and Dutch client portfolios
Assess each case individually and define the appropriate recovery strategy: payment plan, formal notice, vehicle recovery, or escalation to external counsel or bailiff
Coordinate with external partners (lawyers, bailiffs, and debt collection agencies) across three jurisdictions, and monitor progress on open cases
Keep accurate and up-to-date records of all recovery actions and outcomes in our systems
Flag recurring patterns or structural issues in the portfolio to the Finance Manager
Collaborate closely with our Customer Support team throughout each case, not only for a smooth handover when a client moves into collections, but as an ongoing partner across the recovery process
Bring our collections processes to the next level by improving efficiency through automation & AI
π About you
A good candidate is:
Naturally assertive: comfortable having difficult conversations with clients
Proactive: you follow up without being told and you do not let files go cold
Organized and methodical: able to manage multiple open cases simultaneously without losing track
Resilient: rejection and pushback do not throw you off
Energized rather than intimidated by working across different markets and languages
Your profile:
1 to 3 years of experience in a collections, credit recovery, or accounts receivable role, more experienced profiles are also welcome to apply
Fluent in French and Dutch, both written and spoken, is ideal. English is also useful, as it is our internal working language across the Brussels, Paris, and Amsterdam teams
Experience coordinating with external recovery partners (bailiffs, lawyers, or debt collection agencies) is a strong plus
Financial analysis skills aren't required, but they'll come in handy: being able to read an invoice, understand a payment history, and spot a problematic client profile is a real advantage
Comfortable working in a fast-paced environment where processes are still being built
Based in or willing to commute to Brussels on a regular basis
π€ Team & reporting
You will report directly to the Finance Manager and be trained by the Credit Manager, who will onboard you into the collections process. You'll work closely with the whole finance team, including our Senior Credit Analyst, as well as with our Customer Support team on cases that move into collections. We're also investing together in process improvements, including automation and AI, to make collections more efficient across all three markets.
