 About FinAGG Technologies

FinAGG is a Noida-headquartered fintech building India’s most comprehensive MSME credit intelligence and lending infrastructure. Backed by SIDBI, Prime Venture Partners, BLinC Invest, BlueOrchard, and Tata Capital, we have disbursed over ₹5,200 Crore to 85,000+ MSMEs across 6,200+ pin codes — with sub-0.6% delinquency.

Our integrated stack spans FameScore / FinAGG.ai (an RBI-authorised credit intelligence platform and Technology Service Provider), FinAGG Services (a Lending Service Provider under RBI Digital Lending Guidelines), and QCF Capital (an NBFC-ND). We work with anchor brands including Whirlpool, Birla Opus, HUL, and others to finance their dealer and distributor ecosystems.

 Role Overview

The Regional Collection Manager – Chennai will own end-to-end collections performance across the South India region. This is a high-ownership role that sits at the intersection of field operations, risk management, and borrower relationships. You will be responsible for maintaining portfolio health, driving early-stage resolution, managing field agents and legal/recovery channels, and ensuring compliance with RBI Digital Lending and FLDG norms.

You will work closely with the Head of Risk & Collections, regional sales leaders, and our NBFC/bank lending partners to maintain FinAGG’s track record of best-in-class delinquency metrics.

Legal & SARFAESI / Recovery Actions

•      Coordinate with empanelled legal counsel for initiation of arbitration, SARFAESI, Lok Adalat, and NI Act proceedings.

Borrower Communication & Relationship Management

Reporting & Cross-functional Coordination
