Job Level
About the role
- You help maintain an overview of our license inventory across the entire DATAGROUP Group — no matter how many vendors are involved.
- You master our licensing systems and tools, rather than letting them master you.
- You ensure our IT systems are properly licensed — legally compliant and cost-effective.
- You assist in developing licensing strategies that balance availability, compliance and cost.
- You maintain the central contract and license database and produce reports.
- You are the first point of contact for our DATAGROUP companies on all licensing-related questions.
- You take on initial projects in license management and reliably coordinate between subsidiaries and internal teams.
- You support contract negotiations and license renewals — with technical expertise and good relationships with internal and external partners.
Requirements
- You have initial experience in IT license management, ideally in the infrastructure area, and want to deepen your expertise.
- You are familiar with the licensing models of Microsoft, VMware, SUSE/Red Hat and Citrix — you know what matters.
- You have initial experience with software deployments and always keep track of license usage and costs.
- You have basic knowledge of contract negotiations and relevant legal frameworks and have applied these in your daily work.
- You apply your ITIL knowledge purposefully and supportively in your tasks.
- You can quickly grasp complex issues, prepare them clearly and communicate them effectively.
- You have negotiation skills, strong analytical abilities and solid conceptual understanding — accompanied by a professional demeanor.
- Language skills: German (minimum C1), English (business fluent / negotiation-level).
Benefits
- Personalized onboarding with a dedicated mentor — you won't be thrown in at the deep end.
- No two days are the same: challenging, varied, autonomous — but never boring.
- Flat hierarchies instead of bureaucratic escalation paths. Say it directly.
- Flexibility as you need it: hybrid work, flexible hours, additional vacation days — this is our reality.
- Modern offices: height-adjustable desks, two monitors, quiet rooms and open spaces — whatever suits you.
- JobRad & team spirit: whether road bike or e-bike — we'll take care of your new ride. And yes, we celebrate sport together (including sponsorship!).
- Pension plan? We have one, typically with employer contributions.
- Our corporate benefits invite you to shop and experience.
