  5. Provide financial forecasting and reporting related to asset depreciation, recovered value, and ARD operational costs.

  6. Operational Management and Logistics

  7. Manage the end-to-end Reverse Logistics process from asset decommissioning at sites to secure transportation, processing, and final disposition.

  8. Oversee the physical inventory and tracking of all retired assets, ensuring accuracy in the Asset Management System (AMS) and proper categorization (e.g., salvage, scrap, refurbishment).
  9. Ensure the secure erasure and destruction of data residing on all retired hardware (e.g., hard drives, servers, network switches) in compliance with data protection regulations.
  10. Develop Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for handling high-value components, hazardous materials, and sensitive equipment.

  11. Compliance and Risk Management

  12. Ensure all asset disposition activities comply with relevant local, national, and international environmental regulations, including WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) directives.

  13. Manage contractual compliance and performance of all third-party vendors involved in the asset recovery chain.
  14. Stay current on market trends, technology obsolescence cycles, and changes in environmental legislation impacting telecom hardware.

  15. Skills and Competencies

  16. Technical Knowledge: Familiarity with common telecommunications equipment and infrastructure (e.g., routers, switches, servers, base stations, antennas) and their respective lifecycles.

  17. Regulatory Knowledge: Deep understanding of environmental regulations (e.g., e-waste, hazardous material handling) and data security requirements (e.g., GDPR, data sanitisation standards).
  18. Systems Proficiency: Expertise in using Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems (e.g., SAP, Oracle) and dedicated Asset Management Systems (AMS).
  19. Excellent communication, negotiation, and project management skills.
