The Team
Alvarez &amp; Marsal's Corporate Performance Improvement practice is looking for a FinOps leader who bridges finance, engineering, and operations to align cloud investments with maximum business value.

Develop and execute comprehensive FinOps strategies aligned with business and mission goals, detailing frameworks, processes, and governance</li><li>
Create and maintain FinOps roadmaps embedding cost-conscious practices into engineering and architecture lifecycles</li><li>
Design KPI frameworks with clear targets and accountability mechanisms to monitor FinOps delivery</li><li>
Establish governance frameworks for tagging, budgeting, and resource accountability - including guardrails to prevent unnecessary resource allocation</li><li>
Drive automation and transparency in cost reporting, anomaly detection, and forecasting - providing real-time visibility into cloud spend across mission partners</li><li>
Build ROI models and cost reduction business cases that quantify optimization impact for executive audiences</li><li>
Integrate findings into A&amp;M's broader engagement scope and deliverables</li><li>
Support practice development through internal training, content creation, and people development</li></ul>

Demonstrated 15&ndash;30% cloud cost savings delivery on prior engagements</li><li>
