FinOps & Technology Cost Manager

We’re hiring a FinOps & Technology Cost Manager to bring clarity, control, and measurable value to cloud, SaaS, and AI investment across our organisation. This is a high-impact, senior individual contributor role where you’ll shape how technology spend is tracked, governed, and optimised whilst partnering across Technology, Finance, and Contract Management to drive smarter decisions at scale.

From building a transparent, end-to-end view of spend to proactively identifying risks, trends, and optimisation opportunities, you’ll ensure every pound invested in technology delivers real business value. You’ll champion cost-aware engineering, embed robust forecasting and reporting practices, and influence decisions that improve efficiency without compromising delivery.

At Our Future Health, our mission is to transform the prevention, detection and treatment of conditions such as dementia, cancer, diabetes, heart disease and stroke.  We’re looking for people to join us on our journey. If you’re looking for a new challenge where you can contribute to helping future generations live in good health for longer, then we’re keen to speak with you.

What you’ll be doing

• Owning reporting, forecasting, and budget tracking across cloud, SaaS, AI, and technology spend
• Driving cost optimisation through rightsizing, commitment management, and waste reduction
• Building and maintaining accurate forecasts, tracking variance, and agreeing corrective actions
• Developing dashboards and reporting to support leadership decision-making
• Establishing and maintaining standards for cost allocation, tagging, ownership, and governance
• Partnering with Technology, Finance, and Contract Management to improve cost control
• Leading regular spend reviews to identify risks, trends, anomalies, and optimisation opportunities
• Managing SaaS licensing and vendor spend, including utilisation, renewals, and contract value
• Tracking and optimising AI platform costs, including licences, APIs, and token usage
