Track hardware and software assets and maintain inventory records. 4. Manage and update software license records. 5. Reconcile invoices and coordinate with vendors on orders and deliveries. 6. Support approval workflows in Freshservice. 7. Work in enterprise systems including CDW, SAP, and contract management tools. 8. Assist with documentation, reporting, and other administrative tasks as needed. KEY QUALIFICATIONS: 1. High School diploma or equivalent experience. 2.
