About MandaManda is a global provider of enterprise electronics supply chain services and IT asset lifecycle solutions. Our core offerings include data centre decommissioning, IT asset disposition (ITAD), and high-performance computing infrastructure supply, all delivered with a focus on compliance, security, and efficiency. We support partners and clients worldwide across EMEA, North America, and APAC.
Position OverviewReporting directly to the Managing Director (UK), you will play a central role in helping to establish and operate Manda’s UK business during a pivotal growth phase.

You will help create internal processes, coordinate cross‑border workflows, and contribute to building our UK office as a key hub in Manda’s global supply chain network.
This position offers an opportunity to work closely with senior leaders and gain exposure to the inner workings of a fast‑growing international business. As the UK company transitions into a “business as usual” phase over the next 6–12 months, you’ll have the opportunity to specialise further – potentially developing into a role focused on data centre procurement, IT Asset Disposition, or another functional area within our fast‑growing operations.
Please note: This position is open only to candidates able to work full‑time from our Milton Keynes office.

- Contribute to the development and refinement of procurement and operational processes. As you grow in the role, take on increasing responsibility in supplier management, market research, and process improvement.
- Provide general support in any other areas required by the business to ensure the smooth running of Manda’s UK operations.
- Experience in an administrative, operations, or procurement support role preferred.
- Background or interest in IT hardware, logistics, or supply chain advantageous, but attitude and willingness to learn are most important.
- Analytical & Detail‑Oriented: Confident handling numbers and spreadsheets; accuracy and record‑keeping are second nature.
- Adaptable: Comfortable in a fast‑paced, evolving environment. Willing to take on varied responsibilities and work across functions.
- Strong Communicator: Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with a proactive and professional approach to engaging both internal teams and external partners.
- Tech‑Interested: Curious about data centre technology with a willingness to learn our product ecosystem.
