Philip King has been appointed as the new Director General of the Institute of
Credit Management (ICM)
He joins the Institute from his previous role as Senior Billing Manager at
Vodafone, bringing with him more than 25 years experience of working in credit
management as well as a considerable history as an active member of the
Institute.
Commenting on his appointment, Mr King stated: “It’s obvious that the
Institute’s goal of raising professional standards within the industry is
succeeding. The accreditation of the ICM’s examinations has been key to this
success and employers are increasingly asking for these qualifications when
recruiting credit staff.
"It is an exciting time to be joining the Institute and
I am looking forward to ensuring that we continue to be at the forefront of the
industry as the UK body for credit professionals.
“My main focus is what the Institute offers to its members. It is apparent from
a 2005 membership survey that there is a substantial amount that our members
value and that we get right. But we need to look at raising the profile of these
services to existing members to ensure that they are aware of improvements and,
more importantly, to attract new members”.
