About the Role:
The role involves processing items that our team collect into auction ‘lots’ ready for resale online. This involves powering on units and carrying out basic testing, photographing the products, and writing inventory information where appropriate.
Typically, you will clean, process and photograph products. The items to process range from small lots such as microscopes and lab glassware to medium-sized equipment such as ovens and exercise bikes, to large equipment such as furnaces, lathes and milling machines.
Initially, your team leader will provide you with the products to process under direct supervision. But with training and your growing experience in the role, you will begin to organise and break down pallets full of unprocessed equipment for re-sale independently.
You will not be required to write eBay or auction text descriptions within the role.
Overall, because each product we process is very different, the role is quite varied and mentally stimulating. As all our staff will attest, no day is quite the same as the last, and we need a new team member who enjoys the variety and the challenges this brings.
Training and Development:
We sell predominantly used laboratory equipment, but we do not expect you to have any prior knowledge of lab equipment.
About You:
We are looking for a hard-working and committed individual who can think on their feet and respond well to this dynamic position.
To fulfil the role, you will need to be comfortable working in a warehouse environment and using equipment such as pallet trucks daily.
Many of the smaller items are also heavy, often exceeding 30kg, and so you will need to enjoy hard physical work as a lot of manual handling is associated with processing these products.
Many of the items we collect have some simple faults, such as blown fuses or damaged parts that need replacing, so being competent with basic hand tools is also advantageous.
It is important that you feel comfortable both working under direct supervision to meet targets, as well as self-motivating yourself when working independently.
Other Considerations:
The position is strictly non-smoking only.
Because most of the equipment comes from laboratory environments, you will need to wear our lab gloves and lab coats during your working hours.
If desired, there may also be opportunities to do work carrying out equipment collections – this can be discussed at the interview.
