As part the Central FinOps Team, you will enable delivery of data products that enable the Home Office to understand, govern and optimise public cloud spend across AWS and Azure, supporting showback/chargeback and cost optimisation outcomes. You will oversee the ingestion, normalisation and enrichment of cloud billing and usage data, with a strong focus on CUR (including CUR2) and FOCUS datasets as foundational sources for departmental reporting.

You will ensure the organisation can confidently interpret cloud billing behaviour, including the application of commitment-based discounts and commercial mechanisms, and translate this into trusted, reusable data assets. You will work closely with finance and engineering stakeholders to ensure outputs meet operational needs (including exportable, finance ready reporting) and improve the quality of the standing data that underpins allocation and recharge.

A key part of the role is enabling consistent access to insight through dashboards and datasets, including those built in AWS QuickSight using AWS and Azure billing data enriched with organisational context (e.g. cost centres and portfolios).

You will also help set minimum standards and requirements for FinOps capability across the hub and spoke model.
