• Collaborating with IT, OT, finance, procurement, and service delivery teams to embed best practices.

Qualifications

• Knowledge of asset lifecycle management, including procurement, tracking, maintenance, and disposal.
• Experience using asset management tools such as ServiceNow, CMDB, or similar.
• Strong understanding of compliance requirements and industry standards related to IT & OT assets.
• Good financial awareness, with experience tracking costs and working alongside procurement/finance teams.
• Strong analytical and reporting skills, with the ability to turn data into actionable insights.
• Excellent communication skills, able to work effectively with both technical and non-technical audiences.
• ITIL Foundation or professional asset management certification (CITAM, CAMP, ISO 55001) would be advantageous.

Benefits

• Hybrid working (50% in office / 50% working from home)
• Flexible working opportunities
• 25 days annual leave plus bank holidays
