The brightest people. The latest technology. Balance.

Invero is a boutique Microsoft Solutions Partner and trusted advisor to enterprise IT and business leaders. We act as the enterprise architects of the cloud, helping organizations design, govern, and optimize their Microsoft environments across Modern Work, security and compliance, Azure, data, and AI. Our work spans strategy through execution, with deep expertise in Microsoft licensing and commercial optimization, ensuring clients not only build the right solutions, but license and operate them effectively at scale.

About The Role

We are hiring a Microsoft Licensing & FinOps Specialist to help clients make confident, cost-effective decisions across their Microsoft licensing and Azure investments. This is a client-facing, commercially aware role that blends Microsoft licensing expertise, cloud financial management, analysis, and relationship stewardship.

You will support the full Microsoft Cloud Solution Provider (CSP) lifecycle, from pre-sales strategy and quoting through onboarding, ongoing optimization, and renewal. You will also help clients establish practical FinOps practices that improve cloud cost visibility, accountability, governance, and value.

This role will own and optimize Microsoft licensing and CSP lifecycle activities while serving as a trusted advisor to customers and internal teams. Additionally this role will help clients understand and optimize Azure consumption through clear reporting, cost-saving recommendations, governance strategies, reservations, alerts, and practical FinOps guidance.

What You’ll Do

1) Manage the Microsoft licensing lifecycle (Primary)

- Manage and optimize Microsoft CSP software licensing throughout the customer lifecycle, from pre-sales presentations and initial recommendations through onboarding, changes, and renewals.
- Advise customers on licensing options, programs, and commercial models across Microsoft 365, Dynamics 365, Windows Server, and other Microsoft offerings.
- Prepare accurate quotes, pricing scenarios, customer contracts, renewal documentation, and supporting commercial materials.
- Coordinate licensing purchases, changes, co-terming considerations, and renewal activities with disciplined follow-through.
- Support CSP agreement lifecycle activities and related administration in Microsoft Partner Center and internal systems.
- Maintain clear records of customer entitlements, commitments, renewal dates, decisions, and outstanding actions.

2) Deliver practical FinOps and Azure cost optimization (Primary)

- Prepare cloud usage reports and concise executive summaries that explain spend, trends, risks, opportunities, and recommended actions.
- Identify cost-saving and governance opportunities across Azure environments.
- Assist customers with Azure reservation purchase planning and with setting up cost alerts and related controls.
- Help customers connect cloud consumption to business priorities, ownership, budgeting, and decision-making.
- Promote an ongoing optimization mindset rather than treating cost management as a one-time exercise.

3) Support sales and customer growth (Primary)

- Participate in customer pursuits, including pre-sales calls, discovery, account strategy, pricing strategy, and proposal development.
- Present Invero’s CSP and FinOps value proposition in clear, customer-relevant language.
- Provide licensing and cloud financial management subject matter expertise to strengthen recommendations and reduce commercial risk.
- Identify opportunities to improve a customer’s licensing position, Azure value,

4) Lead client engagement and education (Primary)

- Guide customers through licensing and cloud cost decisions without overwhelming them with unnecessary complexity.
- Run working sessions and business reviews that turn data into clear decisions and next steps.
- Evangelize FinOps practices within client organizations and help stakeholders understand their role in cloud financial accountability.
- Communicate effectively with technical, financial, procurement, operational, and executive audiences.
- Close loops, document decisions, and maintain momentum across active customer initiatives.

5) Improve processes, documentation, and repeatability (Primary)

- Share knowledge across the team and help build confidence in licensing and FinOps conversations.
- Maintain up-to-date knowledge of Microsoft licensing, CSP programs, cloud services, and relevant FinOps practices.
- Contribute to the development and continuous improvement of CSP and FinOps processes, templates, reports, checklists, and customer-facing materials.
- Capture repeatable approaches for quoting, onboarding, optimization reviews, renewals, and executive reporting.
- Identify process gaps or recurring customer challenges and recommend practical improvements.

Why This Role Matters
