SimplePay Capital, a financial services company operating in Kenya and Uganda, has announced an internship program for 50 credit officer interns with no experience. The company focuses on providing microfinance, asset finance, and logbook loans to small businesses and individuals, particularly in rural areas. The internship positions are available in multiple locations across Uganda, including Mukono, Lyantonde, Ntungamo, Kasese, Fort Portal, Mityana, Ishaka, Kabale, Nabingo, Jinja, Busia, Masaka, Kyotera, Mbarara, Kireka, Kajjansi, Mubende, Far West, and Far East.
The credit officer interns will play a crucial role in managing and expanding the loan portfolio, delivering excellent customer service, and ensuring customer retention in line with company standards. The internship positions are divided into two roles: Collections Officers and Loans Officers. Collections Officers will be responsible for tracking loan repayment schedules, following up with clients regarding upcoming or missed payments, and negotiating repayment plans to avoid defaults. They will also maintain positive relationships with clients during the collections process.
Loans Officers, on the other hand, will focus on customer acquisition and retention, reviewing and processing loan applications, disbursing loans, and monitoring their progress. They will also provide clear information about loan options, repayment schedules, and terms to ensure customers fully understand their obligations. Additionally, Loans Officers will conduct comprehensive Know-Your-Customer (KYC) checks to verify loan eligibility and ensure compliance with company guidelines and regulatory requirements.
To qualify for the internship, applicants must have a certificate, be fluent in English and Luganda, and be computer literate. They must also be flexible to relocate as required, have strong attention to detail, and a target-driven approach. Applicants should be self-motivated, proactive, and able to work effectively both independently and in a team environment. The age limit for applicants is below 25 years.
The internship program offers a valuable opportunity for young individuals to gain hands-on experience in the finance sector and develop essential skills in loan management, customer service, and collections. SimplePay Capital aims to provide financial inclusion in rural areas and support the growth of small businesses and individuals. The company also runs a foundation that supports health education and provides sanitary supplies to girls in underserved communities.
