Sitting within the IT Commercial and Contracts Team, you'll be central to managing the lifecycle of technology assets - from acquisition and deployment through to optimisation and disposal.

You'll work closely with internal teams, suppliers and senior stakeholders to ensure compliance, improve processes, and maximise value from assets in a highly regulated, critical national infrastructure environment.

If you're proactive, analytical and passionate about asset management, this role gives you the scope to make a real impact.

What you'll be doing

• Maintaining accurate records for IT & OT assets across multiple systems (e.g. ServiceNow, CMDB).
• Supporting the full lifecycle of assets, from procurement to decommissioning.
• Assisting with compliance checks, reporting on asset health and performance, and supporting remediation where needed.
• Working with suppliers and vendors to support procurement, maintenance, and disposal of assets.
• Contributing to continuous improvement initiatives within asset management processes and tools.
• Tracking costs, supporting financial reporting, and identifying opportunities for savings.
• Supporting incident and problem management where asset-related issues are involved.
• Collaborating with IT, OT, finance, procurement, and service delivery teams to embed best practices.

The skills and experience you'll bring

• Proven experience managing IT and OT assets in a large-scale enterprise environment.
• 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.

What you'll get in return (not limited to)

• Hybrid working (50% in office / 50% working from home)
• Flexible working opportunities
• 25 days annual leave plus bank holidays
• Retirement Savings Plan (pension) with Aviva: 5% employee contribution, with WWU doubling your contribution at 10% - totalling 15%
• 14 x salary Life Insurance linked to membership of the Retirement Savings Plan
