FinOps Lead (AI) Reigate / WFH

to £95k

Opportunity to progress your career in a hands-on FinOps leadership role at a global FinTech, enjoying flexible working and a range of benefits.

About the Role

As a FinOps Lead your primary focus will be to maximise the business value of AI and GenAI investment through effective governance, consumption optimisation, unit economics and value measurement, while retaining FinOps responsibility across the wider cloud estate.

You'll act as the subject matter expert for AI and model consumption, advising teams on best practice. You'll analyse cloud and AI spend, improve cost allocation and accountability and establish governance, controls and standards across AI and cloud usage.

Collaborating with Engineering, Product and Finance, you'll identify opportunities to reduce consumption without compromising outcomes, using techniques such as prompt optimisation, context management, caching, model routing and batching. You'll also analyse LLMs and models across providers and pricing tiers to inform cost effective technology decisions.

You'll develop AI FinOps and Token Economics frameworks, alongside financial dashboards and reporting covering AI unit economics, token efficiency, forecasts and value-realisation metrics as well as budgeting, forecasting and variance analysis, maintaining an optimisation pipeline spanning AI consumption and traditional cloud levers such as rightsizing, reservations, storage and workload scheduling.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
