Summary Generated by Built In
Overview
Nobody wakes up excited to call customers about unpaid balances. But somebody has to do it.
As a Collections Specialist, you'll serve as a key point of contact for customers with outstanding account balances, helping them resolve payment obligations through communication, negotiation, and problem-solving. This role focuses on creating positive customer outcomes while meeting collection goals and maintaining compliance with applicable regulations and company policies.
Success in this role requires confidence, resilience, and a customer-focused approach. Rather than relying on aggressive collection tactics, you'll work to understand each customer's situation, identify practical solutions, and negotiate payment arrangements that work for everyone involved.
If you're comfortable having difficult conversations, enjoy solving problems, and know how to balance empathy with accountability, you'll thrive in this role.

Why Work Here
Most collections jobs are about pressure. This one is about problem-solving.
We don't believe in bullying people into paying their bills. We believe in having honest conversations, understanding what's getting in the way, and finding practical solutions. If you enjoy negotiation, like solving puzzles, and can be both empathetic and firm when the situation calls for it, you'll probably enjoy this role.

The Company
What We Do
Corporate Tools is proudly, stubbornly independent. No outside investors calling the shots. It’s just us choosing customers over profits, every time. We build the behind-the-scenes tools that keep businesses running: software, LLC filings, registered agent service, website and domain registration, address services… basically all the unglamorous stuff that makes companies actually work. We’ve grown into one of the largest B2B providers in the U.S. by sticking to a simple mission: solve the real, messy, confusing problems of starting and running a business, while keeping your privacy intact and making your life a whole lot easier.
Why Work With Us
We’re privately held, debt free, and focused on people. Not investors. That means we can keep hiring folks we like, building tools that actually work, and making sure our customers are taken care of. If you want to know more about what values drive us, check out our Company Principles.
