  • Managing software licence compliance, audit readiness and renewals across major enterprise vendors
  • Tracking end-of-life technology and using that insight to inform technical debt and investment planning
  • Maintaining control and accountability of assets across different security classifications
  • Reporting on asset and service design performance to senior stakeholders

What we're looking for

  • Substantial IT service management experience in a large, complex environment
  • A strong track record in service design, service transition or both
  • Hands-on experience of IT asset management, including hardware, software licensing and CMDB
  • Experience of ITSM tooling such as ServiceNow or similar
  • Good supplier and contract management experience
  • The confidence to bring order to a complex estate and influence stakeholders at all levels
  • ITIL v4 Foundation as a minimum

Desirable

  • Higher-level ITIL v4 or an IT asset management qualification such as CSAM
  • Experience in MOD, defence or central government
  • Experience of managing assets in secure or classified environments

Candidates must hold current DV clearance.
