Hands-On Leadership Role in Fast-Growing ITAD Business
We're working with a rapidly growing business within the IT Asset Disposition (ITAD) and electronics refurbishment sector, looking for a hands-on Operations / Processing Manager to lead a busy, high-volume processing facility.
This is a real operational leadership role - you'll be on the floor every day driving performance, solving problems, and ensuring IT equipment is processed efficiently, securely, and to a high standard from intake through to dispatch.
If you enjoy fast-paced environments where no two days are the same, and you can bring structure, pace, and leadership to a busy operation - this will suit you.

What You'll Be Doing

• Lead and support supervisors, team leaders, and operational staff
• Drive KPIs across productivity, throughput, quality, and operational efficiency
• Oversee end-to-end flow of IT assets through secure processing stages
• Work with operational systems supporting IT asset tracking, processing workflows, and data erasure stages
• Maintain strong stock control, accuracy, and chain of custody discipline
• Identify bottlenecks and implement practical, fast-moving improvements
• Ensure compliance with H&S, quality, and operational standards
• Work closely with logistics, compliance, and senior leadership teams

What We're Looking For

• Experience in ITAD, electronics refurbishment, warehouse, logistics, manufacturing or similar process-driven environments
• Strong technical understanding of operational systems, ideally including ERP platforms such as Odoo and data erasure software such as Blancco
• Strong people leadership experience in operational settings
• Proven ability to manage KPIs and drive performance
• Hands-on, visible leadership style (not office-based management)
• Strong problem-solving skills in fast-moving environments
• Confident communicator who can engage teams at all levels

Nice to Have

• ITAD / secure asset processing / electronics refurbishment experience
• ERP / WMS / inventory systems exposure
• Lean / 5S / continuous improvement mindset
• IOSH / NEBOSH or H&S awareness

Why Apply?

• High-impact leadership role with real ownership of site performance
• Opportunity to shape operations in a growing ITAD business
• Fast-paced, dynamic environment with variety every day
• Clear progression opportunities as the business expands
• Supportive leadership team with autonomy in the role
