Do Admin's and Owners need to have a zoom license to administrate the account?

[Spider1701]

Our it Department is the Owner and admin of our zoom account and currently have a license assigned to us.  We don't actually have use for one and I was wondering if it's needed for us to administer the account itself or can we unassign the license and give it to a user that actuall needs it?

Welcome to the Zoom Community, @Spider1701.

An account can be in the Admin role without being Licensed. If you only need to be able to attend meetings and webinars, and don’t need to schedule your own, your Admin (you, in this case) could de-assign the License and assign it to another user’s account in your organization.
