About the Role

We are a leading global financial institution seeking a detail-oriented and operationally disciplined professional to join our IT Warehouse Operations team in Bengaluru. This role sits at the critical intersection of physical IT asset handling and system-of-record accuracy — ensuring that every hardware movement, from receipt to retirement, is executed flawlessly and reflected precisely in ServiceNow.

This is a hands-on, process-driven role that demands both operational rigour and a collaborative mindset, working across IT, logistics, and business support teams to meet defined service levels and business timelines.

• Support laptop and desktop staging, imaging, and basic configuration in accordance with standard operating procedures

• Document ticket details accurately — including request scope, asset information, actions taken, and resolution notes — ensuring a complete and auditable trail
• Monitor assigned tickets regularly and provide timely status updates to stakeholders within defined turnaround times
• Ensure tickets are correctly categorised, prioritised, and routed per ServiceNow policies and SOPs
• Escalate stalled, incomplete, or high-risk tickets to supervisors or resolver groups in accordance with escalation guidelines
• Verify all mandatory fields, approvals, and attachments are complete prior to ticket closure

ServiceNow Asset Management

• Update and maintain accurate hardware asset records in ServiceNow — including state, sub-state, location, custody, and lifecycle status
• Ensure asset records are updated promptly following receipt, deployment, transfer, return, or retirement of IT equipment
• Associate asset records to the correct ServiceNow tickets to maintain full traceability between physical actions and system records
• Reconcile physical inventory against ServiceNow records and report discrepancies
• Support lifecycle events such as repair, redeployment, and disposal by updating records per documented processes
• Attach supporting documentation — shipment details, inventory lists, disposal confirmations — to relevant tickets or asset records as required

IT Operations & Service Support

• Provide operational support for IT hardware fulfilment and warehouse-related service requests
• Act as a coordination point for internal stakeholders on inventory status, order fulfilment, and exceptions
• Adhere to defined turnaround times and service level agreements consistently
• Support planned change activities to minimise operational and business impact

Compliance, Safety & Controls

• Comply with all workplace safety regulations and security controls
• Ensure proper handling, custody, and movement of IT assets to prevent loss or damage
• Follow established company policies, disaster recovery guidelines, and business continuity procedures
• Complete operational reports and documentation accurately and within required timelines
• Participate in process reviews and recommend improvements to enhance efficiency, accuracy, and control
