Software Asset Specialist
About this role
Your Influential Mission: You Will… Manage the lifecycle of software licences and SaaS subscriptions, from request and purchase through allocation, renewal and retirement. Maintain accurate software inventory, entitlement and usage data in the company’s software asset management platform. Monitor licence compliance, resolve discrepancies, support vendor audits and true-ups, and identify opportunities to reclaim unused licences and reduce cost.
Handle software licence requests through the IT service desk within agreed service levels, including approvals, provisioning and offboarding revocations. Assign user seats, support group-based provisioning and single sign-on, and help resolve access, login and permission issues. Track renewal dates and work with Procurement to begin renewals ahead of expiry. Prepare software licence budgets and forecasts, support purchase justifications, allocate costs and work with Finance on invoices, provisions and spend reporting.
Manage domain purchases, renewals, transfers and DNS records, together with the end-to-end lifecycle of SSL certificates. Partner with business users, IT, Information Security, Procurement, Finance and external providers, translating technical topics into clear, practical language. Maintain process documentation and produce regular reporting on licences, spend and renewals. Components for Success: You… Have excellent written and spoken English.
Bring at least two years of experience in an IT-related environment, such as IT operations, service desk, system administration, DevOps, IT procurement or software licensing. Have enough technical understanding to work confidently with concepts such as Active Directory, single sign-on, DNS and SSL certificates. Deep technical expertise is not required. Are highly organised and detail-oriented, with the ability to manage several requests, renewals and priorities at the same time.
Learn new tools and processes quickly and are comfortable taking ownership with limited day-to-day supervision. Do not only raise problems. You investigate, use judgement and bring possible solutions or clear next steps. Communicate confidently with both technical and non-technical stakeholders, including Finance, Legal, Procurement, business users and external partners. Are trustworthy, accountable and comfortable working independently as part of a geographically distributed team.
