How would you describe your role as a Credit Manager in modular construction?

As a Credit Manager in modular unit construction, my role is crucial in ensuring the financial stability and sustainability of projects. I oversee the credit assessment process, which means I evaluate the creditworthiness of customers and partners. This is essential in any business active in modular construction, where projects often require significant upfront investments.

What qualifications are needed to perform the job well?

1. First of all, a solid understanding of finance and accounting is essential.
2. Excellent analytical skills are crucial for an accurate assessment of credit risks.
3. Communication skills are equally important, as I often collaborate with various departments and external stakeholders.
4. Working in detail, adopting a proactive approach, and problem-solving thinking are invaluable in this role.

What makes your workday perfect/successful?

A perfect day for me means that the financial processes run seamlessly, with all stakeholders on the same page. But also when credit assessments are handled efficiently and projects progress smoothly.
I also derive a lot of satisfaction from being able to identify opportunities to optimize financial strategies, which contributes to the overall success of Algeco's projects.

How would your colleagues describe you?

I believe my colleagues would describe me as detail-oriented and reliable. I'm known for my analytical approach to problem-solving, and I make an effort to foster open communication within the team. I'm also passionate about sharing knowledge and helping others understand the financial intricacies of our projects.

If you had to switch jobs for a day, which other Algeco department would you like to work in?

That is an interesting question. If I had to choose, I'd probably spend a day in the Project Management/Sales department. It would provide a valuable opportunity to see firsthand how the financial decisions I make affect the actual execution of projects. This cross-functional experience would enhance my understanding of the broader picture.

I also would like to you on a customer site visits, as I believe this could be incredibly beneficial as it offers a unique opportunity to strengthen our business relationship through direct contact with the client.

This face-to-face interaction not only fosters trust but also provides invaluable insights into their operations, allowing us to tailor our services more effectively.

What does Algeco mean to you?

To me, Algeco represents innovation and excellence in modular unit construction. It is a company that not only leads in technological developments but also strongly emphasizes sustainable and efficient construction practices. It is a privilege to contribute to a team that meaningfully shapes the future of modular construction.

Moreover, it holds special significance for me because my father's success as a building contractor has always fueled my great interest in this industry.
