We're looking for individuals with basic IT hardware knowledge, ideally gained through IT support, desktop deployments, hardware refresh projects or IT asset management.

Supporting the preparation of laptops for recycling or onward processing.
Scheduling and coordinating DPD collections from remote employees across the UK.
Managing the booking in and dispatch of IT equipment.
Identifying and escalating missing, damaged or incorrectly recorded devices.
Supporting general IT asset management and stock control activities.
Skills & Experience Required
Basic understanding of IT hardware, particularly laptops and PCs.
Comfortable accessing BIOS settings and following technical instructions.
Previous experience in IT support, hardware deployments, IT asset management or a similar environment would be beneficial.
Good administration and data entry skills, including spreadsheets and asset tracking systems.
Strong attention to detail and the ability to follow structured processes.
Organised, reliable and comfortable working in a busy, high-volume environment.
Willingness to undertake light manual handling of IT equipment.
Desirable Experience
Laptop deployment, hardware refresh or device recovery projects.
IT Asset Management (ITAM) or IT Asset Disposal (ITAD).
Previous use of CMDB or IT inventory systems.
Experience working with courier booking systems or IT equipment logistics.
