Your impact begins here

As Software Asset Management (Lead/Senior), you will build Software Asset Management into an enterprise-wide capability that Novo governs and owns internally. You will connect entitle-ment, usage, contract and financial data so teams can make sharper investment decisions, ne-gotiate from evidence and simplify the technology landscape. Your work will turn software com-plexity into savings validated by Finance, lower risk and budget released for new priorities, giv-ing colleagues across Novo more room to focus on the work that matters.

What you’ll bring

You know enterprise software licensing well, from contract terms to deployment data, and you can turn that knowledge into decisions people trust. You will also bring:

· A relevant higher education or equivalent professional experience.

· Proven experience in building or maturing Software Asset Management or IT Asset Manage-ment governance and operating models in a complex organisation.

· Deep knowledge of complex software licensing, product-use rights, entitlement reconcilia-tion, effective licence positions, audit readiness and compliance risk.

· A solid understanding of SaaS, cloud marketplace, BYOL, AI and consumption-based com-mercial models.

· Experience with software sourcing, contract interpretation, vendor management and negoti-ations, supported by FinOps, cost transparency, forecasting and benefits tracking.

Hands-on experience with SAM and ITAM platforms such as Flexera One or similar, and an understanding of ServiceNow, CMDB, identity, discovery and endpoint-management tools.

· Strong data, analytics and reporting skills, with the ability to combine financial, contractual, technical and risk information into clear recommendations.

· The ability to influence without formal authority, guide people through new ways of working, and explain technical and contractual complexity in clear business terms to any audience.

· A pragmatic, accountable approach that keeps progress moving when information is incomplete.

Useful, but not essential:

· SAM, ITAM, FinOps, ITIL or vendor-specific certifications.

· Experience with application rationalisation and technology lifecycle management.

· Experience applying automation or governed AI to contract analysis, forecasting or decision support.

What you’ll do

You will set the direction and stay hands-on enough to speed up delivery. Success means clear accountabilities, repeatable cycles and value that Finance can confirm.

· Define and implement the SAM vision, mandate, governance, policies, controls and multi-year roadmap, with clear decision rights across technology, Procurement, Finance, Security and business owners.

· Build recurring processes for licence positions, compliance, audit readiness, optimisation and renewal preparation, so that risks are found and fixed early.

· Turn usage, entitlement, consumption and contract data into rightsizing, reclamation, con-solidation and application-rationalisation actions that improve licence utilisation and reduce redundant or unmanaged software.

· Run a transparent value pipeline covering realised savings, cost avoidance, risk reduction and budget release, and strengthen sourcing strategies and vendor negotiations with evi-dence that holds up.

· Own the business requirements and governance for SAM data, tooling, integrations, data quality and reporting, and connect SAM with FinOps, ITAM, Enterprise Architecture and lifecycle management across on-premises, SaaS, cloud and AI models.

· Apply automation and governed AI to improve efficiency and forecasting, and lead cross-functional initiatives and external specialists while building the internal knowledge Novo needs to depend less on individuals and outside providers.

Who you’ll work with

You will join Enterprise IT & Quality, where colleagues work across the Novo value chain, stay close to stakeholders and help deliver trusted technology and responsible ways of working. You will report to Anders Gooseman Hove.

Your closest partners will be Enterprise IT leadership, Procurement and Strategic Sourcing, and Finance and FinOps. You will also work with Enterprise Architecture, Information Security, Legal, ServiceNow and CMDB teams, cloud and platform teams, and application and product owners. Outside Novo, you will work with software vendors and specialist external advisers.

Each partner owns part of the software picture. You will bring them together around shared data and clear decisions and speak up when things stall.

What you can expect here

You will have the trust and space to shape a capability across the enterprise. Your expertise will inform investment, sourcing and architecture decisions, and you will be expected to make your voice heard and then commit once decisions are made.

The role puts you at the point where technology, commercial and financial work meet, giving you broad exposure across the value chain. As Novo upskills its workforce to make AI a main driver of innovation, you will help shape how governed AI improves the way software is man-aged. You can expect clear performance expectations, honest feedback and a culture that rec-ognises results.

At Novo Nordisk, you’ll join a global healthcare company with a unique culture and strong re-sults. We offer continuous learning, career development, and benefits tailored to your life and career stage.

Salary: For this role, the Annual Base Salary ranges from 742,600 to 1,091,600 DKK corresponding to the level of the position.

The placement within the salary range will be assessed during the recruitment process based on the candidate’s skills, competencies, knowledge, and relevant experience.

Incentives and Benefits: The salary package may include short-term and/or long-term incen-tives as well as other employee benefits based on position level, location, functional area and relevant market benchmarks.

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
