  • Manage device check-in and check-out tied to employee onboarding and offboarding in coordination with HR and OTS.
  • Track equipment lifecycle, warranty status, and replacement planning.

Coordination and Liaison

  • Serve as the local point of contact for end-user escalations that the OTS help desk routes back to the site.
  • Escort and supervise outside IT vendors and contractors when on-site.
  • Document on-site changes, configuration updates, and incidents, and feed this information back to the Group team.
