About The Position

The primary focus of this role is to maximise value recovery from decommissioned IT hardware by identifying opportunities that are not currently being captured. This individual will operate at the sub-component level, with a particular focus on identifying recoverable items within assemblies — for example, individual chips or other high-value elements that may not be visible at a higher-level disposition review. The role will span the full lifecycle from opportunity identification through to implementation, working cross-functionally to turn findings into operational outcomes. Findings and recommendations will feed into the broader value recovery strategy owned by the NPI Coordinator. As the programme matures, the scope of this role may evolve to support broader value recovery and reverse logistics initiatives.

• Experience that includes strong analytical skills, attention to detail, and effective communication abilities
• Experience working cross functionally to implement and optimize workflows
• Familiarity with electronic components — able to inspect assemblies and identify individual sub-components such as ICs, transistors, capacitors, and connectors, and understand their function
• Experience working in hardware teardown, refurbishment, reverse logistics, or similar environments
• Effective communicator — able to work with both technical and commercial stakeholders
• Adaptable and willing to take on a variety of work as the role and programme develop
• Experience working in a fast-paced global company, collaborating across geographies and business functions
