The Role:
Our client is a large organisation based near Livingston, looking for an IT Asset Coordinator to lead a major consolidation and audit of IT equipment held across multiple site locations. This is a hands-on, physical role rather than a technical one - ideal for someone with a background in warehousing, stores management or logistics who is comfortable identifying general IT hardware. Candidates with a military stores/logistics background are particularly well suited to this role.
You'll start with a significant backlog of new and legacy IT equipment (laptops, monitors, network switches, printers, cabling, racking) that needs to be consolidated, audited and properly documented - then sorted for reuse, resale or disposal. As equipment arrives from other sites, you'll repeat the process, working towards a clean, accurate, and repeatable stock system that can be handed over to the internal IT team at the end of the contract.
Key Responsibilities:
- Audit and physically consolidate IT equipment arriving from multiple sites
- Create and maintain an accurate stock record, capturing serial numbers, device type, storage location, PO reference, and intended purpose
- Sort equipment into categories: ready for redeployment, for resale, or for disposal
- Liaise with an appointed recycling/disposal partner to arrange collection of scrapped equipment
- Coordinate with internal logistics/warehouse teams to arrange collection and transport of equipment between sites
- Work with finance colleagues where equipment is being sold on
- Prepare stock for deployment - organising shelving, building pallets and managing physical storage space
- Work alongside two junior technicians responsible for wiping laptops and network equipment
- Establish a clear, documented process that can be handed over to the IT team once the contract concludes
Skills required:
- Experience in a warehousing, stores, or logistics environment is essential
- A general understanding of IT equipment (laptops, monitors, network switches, printers, cabling) - you do not need to be a technical specialist
- Highly organised, methodical, and accurate with record-keeping
- A practical 'doer' who is comfortable with physical, on-site work
- Able to work independently, prioritise, and manage a large volume of stock
- Ex-forces candidates with a stores/supply background are strongly encouraged to apply
This is an on-site role based in Livingston, West Lothian. You need to be able to commute to site daily for the duration of the contract.
