A tier-one financial services organisation operating at serious scale across EMEA is rebuilding its Software Asset Management capability from the ground up. This role exists because SAM is now a regulatory and commercial priority and not an afterthought. With increased scrutiny across licensing, audits, and operational resilience (including DORA), they need a senior SAM practitioner who can step in, take ownership, and set the standard. This is not business-as-usual SAM. You’ll be shaping how software governance works across a complex, regulated environment — with visibility, autonomy, and executive air cover.
Job Responsibility:
Build and embed an end-to-end SAM operating model — lifecycle, governance, controls, and reporting
Establish a clean, auditable entitlement position across major vendors (Microsoft, Oracle, Adobe, SaaS platforms)
Lead audit readiness and vendor audits, reducing commercial and regulatory risk
Drive licence optimisation and cost control — re-harvesting, rationalisation, and renewal strategy
Own SAM data quality within ServiceNow SAM Pro, including dashboards and executive reporting
Act as a senior advisor to IT, Procurement, Finance, and Risk on software usage and compliance
Requirements:
Senior Software Asset Management experience in banking, fintech, or regulated environments
Proven experience building or resetting SAM functions — not just running BAU
Strong knowledge of software licensing models (SaaS, subscription, cloud, perpetual)
Hands-on expertise with ServiceNow SAM Pro (data, entitlements, dashboards)
Confident leading audits, vendor discussions, and renewals
Comfortable engaging senior stakeholders across Technology, Finance, and Risk
