Job Title: AI FinOps Lead Salary: £80,000 - £95,000 + 15% bonus Location: Croydon - ideally 2 days per week in the office, with some flexibility for the right candidate Work Type: Permanent Role: AI investment is growing rapidly, and this is an opportunity to take ownership of how a large, complex organisation manages, measures and maximises the value of that investment. We're looking for an AI Economics & FinOps Lead to take a highly visible role combining traditional cloud FinOps with the emerging world of AI cost management and token economics. This isn't a role where you'll simply produce reports and tell teams what they've spent. You'll work directly with engineering, AI and business stakeholders to understand how AI is being consumed, why costs differ between teams and technology stacks, and whether that investment is delivering genuine business value. You'll have the opportunity to help shape how AI economics is managed as adoption accelerates, while continuing to drive optimisation across a significant wider cloud estate. Responsibilities: • Take ownership of AI economics and FinOps activity across a complex technology environment. • Analyse AI, token and cloud consumption to understand where money is being spent and the value being generated. • Work directly with engineering and technology teams to investigate unusual consumption patterns and identify opportunities to improve efficiency. • Help teams optimise AI usage through areas such as model selection, prompt optimisation, caching, context management and model routing. • Develop meaningful metrics around AI unit economics, token efficiency and value realisation. • Support ongoing forecasting and budgeting, identifying potential overspend early and helping teams take action. • Compare AI models, providers and usage patterns to support better technology and commercial decisions. • Improve cost allocation, accountability, tagging, showback and chargeback across AI and cloud consumption. • Continue to drive traditional FinOps optimisation, including rightsizing, commitment utilisation, storage, scaling and workload optimisation. • Build reporting and dashboards that translate complex consumption data into clear insights for technical teams and senior leadership. • Become a thought leader for AI economics and FinOps, helping educate teams and establish best practice as the capability develops. Required Skills: • Strong experience within FinOps, cloud financial management or a closely related discipline. • Practical exposure to AI/ML or GenAI cost management and an understanding of token-based consumption. • Knowledge of how LLM/GenAI pricing and consumption works, including areas such as input/output tokens, caching and different model/provider pricing structures. • Experience analysing cloud consumption and turning data into tangible optimisation actions and financial outcomes. • Experience working within a complex cloud environment. Azure is preferred, although experience across other major cloud platforms will be considered. • Understanding of traditional FinOps practices including cost allocation, tagging, forecasting, budgeting and cloud optimisation. • Strong analytical and reporting capability, with experience using Power BI or similar tooling. • The confidence to work directly with engineering leaders, technical teams and senior stakeholders, constructively challenging existing approaches where required. • The ability to take ownership of a developing capability rather than simply operate within an established process. Why should I apply? This is an opportunity to get ahead of where FinOps is going next. You'll combine an established FinOps skillset with one of the fastest-developing areas in technology: understanding the economics behind enterprise AI adoption. Rather than becoming another person within a large FinOps function, you'll have the opportunity to become the recognised expert for AI economics and FinOps within the business. The role has significant visibility, with senior stakeholders actively invested in getting this capability right. You'll be joining at a point where AI investment is accelerating, giving you the opportunity to shape the frameworks, reporting, governance and best practices used to manage it rather than inheriting something already finished. For someone who wants to build their career at the intersection of FinOps, cloud and AI , there is significant scope to develop your expertise, profile and influence as the capability grows. Interested? Apply for the role today or send your CV to .

Bromcom Computers Plc is the UK's fastest-growing cloud-native school Management Information System (MIS) provider, serving thousands of schools across three UK countries. The DevOps Team Manager leads a team of 3-4 engineers and is accountable for the reliable, secure and controlled operation of Bromcom's Azure-first SaaS platform. This is a hands-on DevOps engineering leadership role with an expected balance of 70% hands-on DevOps engineering and 30% people and team management. The manager works closely with the engineers, contributes directly to delivery and operations, and owns completion and ongoing maintenance of the agreed DevOps operational control improvements. The role requires a credible engineering background. The successful candidate is expected to work directly across Azure platform engineering, CI/CD, Bicep/ARM, automation, incident response and operational controls, while leading the team and setting standards. They must be able to challenge technical decisions, understand operational risk and failure modes, and ensure agreed processes are implemented, followed, evidenced and continually improved. A control is not complete simply because a policy or tool exists; it must work consistently in practice. Key Responsibilities People & Team Leadership Lead, line-manage and develop a team of 3-4 DevOps engineers, including at least one senior engineer; own recruitment, onboarding, objectives, appraisals and performance management. Set clear role boundaries, decision rights and escalation routes; ensure high-risk activities are performed or approved only by people with the required competence and authority. Own team capacity, priorities and the out-of-hours on-call rota. The manager is expected to take a fair share of scheduled rota cover alongside the engineers and respond to production incidents and urgent operational issues during that cover, including evenings, weekends and bank holidays where required. Ensure rota coverage, handovers, escalation routes and recovery time are planned and sustainable, while protecting time for reliability, control improvement, technical debt, training and documentation. Build an accountable coaching culture in which engineers raise risk early, follow agreed standards, maintain evidence and learn from incidents and control failures. Engineering & Platform Leadership Provide hands-on engineering leadership for Bromcom's Azure-hosted, multi-tenant SaaS platform. Work closely with engineers to design, build, review, troubleshoot and improve platform services, pipelines, Infrastructure-as-Code, automation and operational tooling. The manager remains accountable for technical quality while enabling engineers to own their work. Set and maintain engineering standards for Azure architecture, Azure DevOps, Bicep/ARM, deployment patterns, observability, resilience, security and operational support. Challenge designs and changes using risk, maintainability, failure-mode, rollback and supportability thinking; involve senior engineers and technical leadership where specialist authority is required. Own platform SLAs/SLOs, service health, major-incident command, root-cause analysis, disaster recovery, business continuity testing and continuous service improvement. Operational Controls, Standards & Compliance Take day-to-day ownership within the DevOps team for implementing the agreed operational control improvement plan, driving actions to completion and then maintaining the controls as part of normal team operation. Implement and enforce an end-to-end change lifecycle covering request, design, risk assessment, peer or senior review, testing, approval, implementation, post-change verification and formal closure. Ensure policies, standard operating procedures, runbooks, RACI and ownership arrangements, approval thresholds and evidence requirements remain current, practical and aligned across Azure DevOps, SysAid and other operational systems. Ensure production and customer-impacting changes, including emergency changes and customer-specific change notices, have proportionate risk classification, segregation of duties, pre-production evidence, approval, rollback plans and traceable outcomes. Maintain audit-ready evidence for changes, deployments, access, incidents, disaster-recovery tests, vulnerabilities, exceptions and corrective actions, aligned with Bromcom's security, quality, service-management, UK GDPR and customer obligations. Confirm controls are operating effectively, not simply documented or configured. Track exceptions, overdue actions and repeat failures to closure, with clear corrective actions and independent assurance where required. Provide weekly control reporting and escalate material risk, blocked actions or insufficient capacity promptly. Work with QA, Compliance, Security and technical leads to translate procedural controls into automated technical gates where practical. Delivery, Automation & AI Work directly with engineers to design, build, review and continually improve Azure DevOps CI/CD pipelines and Bicep/ARM Infrastructure-as-Code, including automated approvals, testing, security checks, evidence capture and post-deployment verification. Reduce manual toil and unsafe variation through automation, reusable platform patterns and clear service ownership; ensure manual exceptions are visible, justified, time-bound and reviewed. Set the strategy and guardrails for AI-assisted and agentic DevOps delivery across CI/CD, Infrastructure-as-Code generation, incident triage, log analysis, runbook automation and documentation. Use and govern AI engineering tools such as Claude, GitHub Copilot or Codex, with clear quality, security, data-protection and human accountability controls. Apply them practically to increase delivery speed, quality and reliability, while ensuring an engineer remains accountable for every output and change. Security, Identity & FinOps Own platform identity, privileged-access and secrets-management controls, including Entra ID, Key Vault, OAuth, certificate automation, WAF and network security across VNets, App Gateway, S2S VPN and DNS. Ensure access follows least-privilege principles, is reviewed regularly and is supported by effective joiner-mover-leaver, break-glass and segregation-of-duties controls. Own observability standards across Azure Monitor and Grafana, security and vulnerability follow-up, and cloud cost and FinOps accountability for the Azure estate. Stakeholder & Cross-Team Influence Act as the accountable management and technical escalation point across Software Engineering, CloudOps, IT and Security, QA and Compliance, and external partners, working with senior engineers on design-authority decisions. Provide concise, conclusions-first reporting to the CTO and Executive Team on service health, delivery, control effectiveness, risks, exceptions and improvement progress. Contribute to Bromcom's software delivery transformation programme and align the DevOps operating model and controls with AIDP and wider software-engineering standards. Person Specification Essential Proven line-management experience leading a DevOps, CloudOps or platform team, with accountability for recruitment, objectives, appraisals, development and performance management. Current hands-on experience in DevOps, cloud or platform engineering, with the ability to contribute directly to architecture, Azure platform work, pipelines, Bicep/ARM Infrastructure-as-Code, automation, troubleshooting, security and resilience. Candidates should expect approximately 70% of the role to involve hands-on engineering delivery. Evidence of implementing and maintaining operational controls, processes and procedures in a DevOps or CloudOps environment, including ownership of improvement actions, exceptions, corrective actions and audit evidence. Practical command of end-to-end change and release governance, including risk classification, peer or senior review, testing, approvals, segregation of duties, rollback, emergency change, post-change verification and closure. Deep Azure platform expertise across Entra ID, App Services, Key Vault, App Gateway, VNets, Azure SQL or MySQL, WAF and DNS. Strong CI/CD and Infrastructure-as-Code knowledge across Azure DevOps pipelines and Bicep/ARM for Windows and Linux workloads, with the ability to govern standards and technical gates. A track record of operating production, multi-tenant SaaS at scale, including SLA/SLO ownership, major-incident command, root-cause analysis, disaster recovery and service improvement. Willingness and ability to participate personally in the out-of-hours on-call rota, including scheduled evening, weekend and bank-holiday cover where required. Experience working with security, compliance and audit teams in a regulated or data-sensitive environment, with the ability to turn policies into workable controls and demonstrate that they operate effectively. Demonstrable practical use of Claude, GitHub Copilot or Codex as engineering delivery tools, with sound governance, secure use and accountable human review. Clear senior-level communication and reporting, with the discipline to assign owners, manage risks and dependencies, challenge weak evidence and pursue actions through to verified closure. Desirable Experience leading an operational-control improvement or remediation programme in an ISO 27001 or similarly controlled environment. . click apply for full job details

Set clear role boundaries, decision rights and escalation routes; ensure high-risk activities are performed or approved only by people with the required competence and authority. Own team capacity, priorities and the out-of-hours on-call rota. The manager is expected to take a fair share of scheduled rota cover alongside the engineers and respond to production incidents and urgent operational issues during that cover, including evenings, weekends and bank holidays where required. Ensure rota coverage, handovers, escalation routes and recovery time are planned and sustainable, while protecting time for reliability, control improvement, technical debt, training and documentation. Build an accountable coaching culture in which engineers raise risk early, follow agreed standards, maintain evidence and learn from incidents and control failures. Engineering & Platform Leadership Provide hands-on engineering leadership for Bromcom's Azure-hosted, multi-tenant SaaS platform. Work closely with engineers to design, build, review, troubleshoot and improve platform services, pipelines, Infrastructure-as-Code, automation and operational tooling. The manager remains accountable for technical quality while enabling engineers to own their work. Set and maintain engineering standards for Azure architecture, Azure DevOps, Bicep/ARM, deployment patterns, observability, resilience, security and operational support. Challenge designs and changes using risk, maintainability, failure-mode, rollback and supportability thinking; involve senior engineers and technical leadership where specialist authority is required. Own platform SLAs/SLOs, service health, major-incident command, root-cause analysis, disaster recovery, business continuity testing and continuous service improvement. Operational Controls, Standards & Compliance Take day-to-day ownership within the DevOps team for implementing the agreed operational control improvement plan, driving actions to completion and then maintaining the controls as part of normal team operation. Implement and enforce an end-to-end change lifecycle covering request, design, risk assessment, peer or senior review, testing, approval, implementation, post-change verification and formal closure. Ensure policies, standard operating procedures, runbooks, RACI and ownership arrangements, approval thresholds and evidence requirements remain current, practical and aligned across Azure DevOps, SysAid and other operational systems. Ensure production and customer-impacting changes, including emergency changes and customer-specific change notices, have proportionate risk classification, segregation of duties, pre-production evidence, approval, rollback plans and traceable outcomes. Maintain audit-ready evidence for changes, deployments, access, incidents, disaster-recovery tests, vulnerabilities, exceptions and corrective actions, aligned with Bromcom's security, quality, service-management, UK GDPR and customer obligations. Confirm controls are operating effectively, not simply documented or configured. Track exceptions, overdue actions and repeat failures to closure, with clear corrective actions and independent assurance where required. Provide weekly control reporting and escalate material risk, blocked actions or insufficient capacity promptly. Work with QA, Compliance, Security and technical leads to translate procedural controls into automated technical gates where practical. Delivery, Automation & AI Work directly with engineers to design, build, review and continually improve Azure DevOps CI/CD pipelines and Bicep/ARM Infrastructure-as-Code, including automated approvals, testing, security checks, evidence capture and post-deployment verification. Reduce manual toil and unsafe variation through automation, reusable platform patterns and clear service ownership; ensure manual exceptions are visible, justified, time-bound and reviewed. Set the strategy and guardrails for AI-assisted and agentic DevOps delivery across CI/CD, Infrastructure-as-Code generation, incident triage, log analysis, runbook automation and documentation. Use and govern AI engineering tools such as Claude, GitHub Copilot or Codex, with clear quality, security, data-protection and human accountability controls. Apply them practically to increase delivery speed, quality and reliability, while ensuring an engineer remains accountable for every output and change. Security, Identity & FinOps Own platform identity, privileged-access and secrets-management controls, including Entra ID, Key Vault, OAuth, certificate automation, WAF and network security across VNets, App Gateway, S2S VPN and DNS. Ensure access follows least-privilege principles, is reviewed regularly and is supported by effective joiner-mover-leaver, break-glass and segregation-of-duties controls. Own observability standards across Azure Monitor and Grafana, security and vulnerability follow-up, and cloud cost and FinOps accountability for the Azure estate. Stakeholder & Cross-Team Influence Act as the accountable management and technical escalation point across Software Engineering, CloudOps, IT and Security, QA and Compliance, and external partners, working with senior engineers on design-authority decisions. Provide concise, conclusions-first reporting to the CTO and Executive Team on service health, delivery, control effectiveness, risks, exceptions and improvement progress. Contribute to Bromcom's software delivery transformation programme and align the DevOps operating model and controls with AIDP and wider software-engineering standards. Person Specification Essential Proven line-management experience leading a DevOps, CloudOps or platform team, with accountability for recruitment, objectives, appraisals, development and performance management. Current hands-on experience in DevOps, cloud or platform engineering, with the ability to contribute directly to architecture, Azure platform work, pipelines, Bicep/ARM Infrastructure-as-Code, automation, troubleshooting, security and resilience. Candidates should expect approximately 70% of the role to involve hands-on engineering delivery. Evidence of implementing and maintaining operational controls, processes and procedures in a DevOps or CloudOps environment, including ownership of improvement actions, exceptions, corrective actions and audit evidence. Practical command of end-to-end change and release governance, including risk classification, peer or senior review, testing, approvals, segregation of duties, rollback, emergency change, post-change verification and closure. Deep Azure platform expertise across Entra ID, App Services, Key Vault, App Gateway, VNets, Azure SQL or MySQL, WAF and DNS. Strong CI/CD and Infrastructure-as-Code knowledge across Azure DevOps pipelines and Bicep/ARM for Windows and Linux workloads, with the ability to govern standards and technical gates. A track record of operating production, multi-tenant SaaS at scale, including SLA/SLO ownership, major-incident command, root-cause analysis, disaster recovery and service improvement. Willingness and ability to participate personally in the out-of-hours on-call rota, including scheduled evening, weekend and bank-holiday cover where required. Experience working with security, compliance and audit teams in a regulated or data-sensitive environment, with the ability to turn policies into workable controls and demonstrate that they operate effectively. Demonstrable practical use of Claude, GitHub Copilot or Codex as engineering delivery tools, with sound governance, secure use and accountable human review. Clear senior-level communication and reporting, with the discipline to assign owners, manage risks and dependencies, challenge weak evidence and pursue actions through to verified closure. Desirable Experience leading an operational-control improvement or remediation programme in an ISO 27001 or similarly controlled environment. . click apply for full job details

Basware is building its AI capability deliberately - not as a procurement exercise, but as a structural shift in how the business operates. This role leads that build. The AI Lead heads our AI & Automation Centre of Excellence, the organisation's centre of gravity for AI adoption. It's a role with a mandate to make AI real in how Basware works: the right tools in people's hands, an organisation that knows how to use them well, and the guardrails, processes, and governance that let adoption scale safely. You'll set the patterns, run the experiments, and drive the enablement that turn AI from interest into everyday practice across every function - and you'll lead the team that delivers it. This role is about the enterprise's own adoption of AI and automation: deploying and supporting tools like Claude and Copilot, running fast proofs of concept, setting best practice, and helping every function get more out of these tools than they could alone. This is hands on leadership role with mandate to deliver. We're looking for someone who has passion for AI adoption and driving change in a complex enterprise, made the hard tooling and prioritisation calls, and got real usage rather than pilots that stall. What You'll Own Tooling & deployment. Own the enterprise AI and automation toolset - Claude, Copilot, etc. and the platforms around them. Decide what we roll out, to whom, and how we support it. Manage licensing, access, and the integration into how people already work. Experimentation & PoCs. Run a fast, disciplined pipeline of proofs of concept. Test where AI genuinely helps, kill what doesn't, and turn what works into repeatable patterns the rest of the organisation can adopt. Best practice & enablement. Build the playbooks, prompt patterns, and training that make people effective with the tools. Run the federated AI champion model - train the people who train their teams - and translate capability into adoption. Process, automation & orchestration. Identify where AI and automation can reshape how work flows across functions. Design and stand up the orchestration that connects tools, data, and people into something more than the sum of its parts. Governance & compliance. Define and operate AI usage policy, risk tiering, tool approval, and regulatory compliance (GDPR, EU AI Act). You're the person Security and Legal call when there's a question about how AI is being used. Cross-org collaboration & leadership. Partner across every function - and with Product & Technology - to align on tooling, share what works, and avoid duplicated effort. Build and lead the CoE team, set the roadmap, and maintain the executive view of AI maturity, value, and risk for the CIO and AI steering group. Must-have Skills A background in technology or data - software development, data engineering, solution architecture, or similar - deep enough that you reason about systems from first principles, not just at the surface Driven AI and automation adoption across a complex enterprise - got real, sustained usage, not just successful pilots Hands-on with enterprise AI tools (Claude, Microsoft Copilot, Ai foundry or equivalent) you know what good use looks like, can build a working PoC yourself, and can coach others to it Working fluency with cloud platforms (Azure, AWS, or GCP) and how AI tools are deployed, integrated, and secured within them - identity and access (SSO, SCIM), APIs, and data flows Solid grasp of information security and data privacy as they apply to AI - data residency, classification, what leaves the tenancy and what doesn't, and how to assess a tool against GDPR and the EU AI Act Strong instinct for where AI and automation add value and where they don't - able to run fast PoCs, read the results honestly, and make the call Built enablement at scale - training, best practice, champion networks, change management - and changed how people actually work Strong cross-functional operator - builds trust across business teams, IT, and Security, and partners well with adjacent technical functions Proven people and team leadership; able to build a function and develop the people in it Executive-grade communication. Nice to have Built a Centre of Excellence or enablement function from scratch Deep experience with Microsoft 365 Copilot, Power Platform, other automation and orchestration platform rollout and adoption Familiarity with workflow automation and orchestration tooling Familiarity with finance, Sales, marketing and other central business processes Understanding of FinOps principles applied to AI and tooling spend
