**Overview**
Permanent opportunity, based in the Melbourne CBD.

A flexible WFH arrangement on offer: you are able to work from wherever you add the most value.

Sharp & Carter have partnered with a global ASX-listed Tech business to recruit a Cloud FinOps Analyst. As my client's spending on AWS increases, this person will be responsible for optimising the company's cloud consumption. This person will have strategic decision-making power over the company's relationship with its cloud vendor.

The Cloud Analyst will work with the Product and Technology teams with responsibility for the monitoring and governance of all cloud commercials. The role will initially assess the current procedures and controls around Cloud costs, determine their suitability and ability to scale, and implement improvements to the framework. You will have the full support of management and the budget owners.

You will ensure we are billed accurately, maintain cost information using Cloud, third-party, or custom tools; preparing forward-looking cost estimates. Understand the broader client impact and quality proposition of this

technology, and support agility in its delivery. You will also lead initiatives to optimise associated SaaS product licensing.

**Accountabilities & Deliverables**
- Identify and facilitate opportunities to optimise, reduce cost and plans to realise the savings
- Analyse, report, and produce meaningful and actionable insights from large raw datasets within cloud billing and usage tools
- Provide summaries and detailed usage statistics for resources across public clouds, offering actionable intelligence to right-size and scale services efficiently
- Provide early intervention and management information to enable Cloud Technology to provide advice to consumers of the services
- Collaborate with finance and billing teams on budget, forecast and expenses reports relating to hosting
- Proactively improve processes and practices used on own projects and actively share these with peers

**Key Competencies**
- Experience with any public cloud solution
- You will love data, interpreting it and using it to identify and drive business outcomes and improvement as it relates to cloud
- Experience with any FinOps tools is beneficial (e.g. CloudAbility, Cloud Health, Data Dog)
- An operational understanding of how to effect optimisation within a Cloud Environment.
