Your role primarily centers on overseeing and optimizing software license management across a large and complex software estate (1200+ application families). This includes ensuring licensing compliance, the active management of license data accuracy, opportunities for simplification of our licensing position and license optimisation opportunities to drive value for money where appropriate.
We seek a highly organised individual with proven experience in software asset management, specifically licence entitlement and compliance management. Strong interpersonal skills and a process-driven approach, including the ability to implement new working practices, are essential.

We encourage consideration of flexible ways of working, both formal and informal arrangements, that allow for the best outcomes for our people and our clients. If this opportunity is of interest to you with some flexibilities, please do discuss it with us.
