About us

Our history

As Vice President of the European arm of an international software company, Julian managed growth from £12m turnover to £35m turnover in three years. Growth came from new customers and new markets.

With the need to minimise credit risk and maximise invoice collections, Ed was hired as Credit Director to oversee the entire process from new customer addition to receipt of cash – growth was then underpinned by strong credit management and minimised debtor days.

Julian and Ed realised that there was a market need for this type of activity, that could be accessed on a pay as you use basis. The software company was acquired by its main competitor and Octempo:RM was born.
