Indra is seeking a General Operative & Office Administrator to support the Next Generation Ticketing (NGT) Managed Service. This junior, practical role combines day-to-day warehouse operations, equipment logistics, reception and office administration, basic workplace IT assistance, purchasing coordination and domestic/international travel bookings. The role reports directly to the Field Operations Manager, who sets overall priorities and deploys the resource across operational requirements.

This position would particularly suit someone early in their career with basic IT knowledge or experience, an interest in technology and engineering, and a practical, hands‑on approach. The role works closely with the Field Service Coordinator, Field Engineers, Laboratory Technicians and wider Operations team, offering supervised technical exposure and a potential development pathway into Field Service Engineering or Laboratory & Field Support.

• Receive incoming post, parcels, courier shipments and general deliveries; log, sort, notify recipients and distribute items promptly to the correct teams and locations throughout the building. Arrange outgoing post and couriers, meeting rooms, office supplies and routine facilities support.
• Coordinate delivery receipt and sign-off, identify missing or damaged items and elevate as required. Ensure suitable front-desk and deliveries cover is arranged while undertaking external PMV collections or other duties.

Basic Desk-side IT & Meeting Room Support

• Assist users with approved first-line desk-side activities, including monitor, docking station, peripheral and workstation setup.
• Prepare meeting-room audiovisual and video-conferencing equipment, displays, cameras, microphones and connections.
• Carry out basic checks using approved procedures and log/escalate unresolved matters to Indra support.
• Record office IT equipment movements; do not undertake privileged ICT administration or security changes.

Procurement & Purchasing Coordination

• Work closely with Indra's internal Procurement team on purchasing requirements for the warehouse, Dublin office and Field Operations.
• Follow Indra procurement policies, systems, supplier engagement rules, delegated authority and established approval workflows at all times.
• Coordinate purchase requisitions, supporting documents and quotations where authorised; assist with tools, spare parts, consumables, office materials and approved equipment needs.
• Track purchase orders, deliveries and outstanding requests; verify goods received and liaison with Procurement and Finance to resolve discrepancies.
• Maintain procurement trackers and records, elevate delays and never make purchasing commitments outside approved processes.

Travel & Accommodation Coordination

• Coordinate domestic and international travel bookings for Operations team members, including flights, rail, accommodation, car hire and ground transport.
• Work with approved travel providers and Indra's internal travel/approval processes to arrange, amend or cancel bookings.

Safety, Security & Working Arrangements

• Follow warehouse, manual handling, vehicle, site access, information security and equipment chain-of-custody requirements.
• Use appropriate PPE, report hazards or incidents promptly and comply with Transport Operator rules when visiting operational sites.
• Primarily warehouse/office based, with regular travel across the Greater Dublin Area and flexibility for occasional planned out-of-hours or weekend activity where agreed.
