Frank Herrera has been working with Bishop & Sewell LLP as a consultant "Head of Credit" since 2020 on a part-time basis.
He possesses a wealth of experience within Credit Control/ Debt Management and to date, he has substantially reduced our aged debt to manageable levels notwithstanding, reducing the levels of queries as a result of his eye for detail coupled with his communication skills in dealing with internal stakeholders.
He shows total professionalism and understanding of the firm's business process and ethos that is paramount to maintaining a good working relationship with our clients. Frank also set up a Credit Control Policy that ensures that we maximise debt recovery and minimise bad debt.
I have no hesitation in recommending Frank's professionalism, skills and knowledge within Credit Management to likeminded Law firms.

Frank Herrera worked as a Credit Management Consultant on our behalf for 12 months.
During this period, he has reduced our debtor days outstanding month-on-month and as such, our cash flow has greatly improved. With his new implemented Credit Policy & Procedures running smoothly and efficiently, our day- to-day credit control is now easily manageable and this has provided our work force with the ability to deal with debtor queries promptly resulting in payments being remitted according to our trading terms.
He has also assisted in the recruitment and training of our current credit controller leading by example with his management style. Needless to say, we have exhausted Frank's experience and knowledge of Credit Control Management.
I have great pleasure in recommending Frank to any future company and have no doubt whatsoever, that his services would be an asset.

Frank Herrera was recruited by us on a consultancy basis to recover the book debt relating to monies owed to a recruitment firm that went into Liquidation.
In this respect, he proved to be very diligent, hardworking and efficient. He built up a good rapport with the debtors who through a confidential financing agreement, owed a substantial amount of money. This rapport continued into his consultancy and facilitated an efficient completion of the collection process in a short space of time.
We were extremely satisfied with his assistance in this matter and are confident that he would be an asset to any collection process.

Frank Herrera was introduced to us via an agency as we needed an experienced Credit Controller who could hit the ground running. He immediately introduced some basic credit control procedures that benefited our team and added to our existing processes.
He struck up good relationships with our bespoke clients and helped reduce our debtors outstanding and identified some improvements that were needed in the billing area to help reduce the amount of credit control issues.
He was reliable and a team player who would lead by example.

Frank Herrera was introduced to us by Robert Walters as a Credit Manager on a three month contract.
We needed someone to act very quickly to help us with our cash position and Frank was certainly able to make an impact very quickly. Within the first five weeks he had reduced our outstanding debtors by 10%.
Frank's strengths are his personality and organisational skills. He was very good with our customer AP departments and other client contact and more importantly, was able to achieve his objective of collecting cash whilst, maintaining relationships. He was also very good with process and tracking, organising outstanding debtors.
Frank was a pleasure to work with and I would have no hesitation in recommending him to any company that required an experienced person specialising in all aspects of Credit Control.
