Hull, HU10 + 2 days home working Up to 80,000 + Benefits Your new role I am currently recruiting for a Lead Data Engineer to build and strengthen the foundations of the data platform, delivering reliable pipelines, governed, high-quality data products that teams across Sales, Network, Customer Experience, Finance and Operations can trust. Responsibilities Build, optimise and operate ELT/ETL pipelines into our data platform using SQL and Python (PySpark), with a focus on reliability, performance and maintainability. Develop and maintain core data models (curated layers, dimensional models, shared definitions) that enable consistent KPI reporting and analysis. Implement and embed data quality controls (freshness, completeness, accuracy, reconciliation checks) and monitoring so issues are detected early and fixed at source where possible. Partner with analysts and stakeholders to turn business questions into reusable, well-governed data products rather than one-off reporting. Improve engineering standards: Git workflows, code review, documentation, repeatable deployments, and sensible environment separation. Support governance by helping define data contracts, ownership, lineage and "what does this metric mean?" clarity, so teams can use and challenge the numbers confidently. Contribute to the wider platform roadmap while keeping delivery outcomes front and centre. Lead by example on engineering quality: set the bar for production-grade delivery (testing, monitoring, documentation, code review, release discipline) and help the team consistently meet it. Coach and uplift others: mentor junior engineers/analysts, run pairing sessions, provide practical feedback, and help raise SQL/Python capability across the function. Experience needed Strong hands-on experience as a data engineer in complex, high-growth or technology-led organisations. A track record of taking data pipelines and models from "fragile and fragmented" to "trusted, governed and embedded" through practical engineering improvements. Solid experience across the data engineering lifecycle: ingestion, transformation/modelling, and enabling consumption through BI/semantic conventions. Hands-on capability with modern cloud data platforms and tooling, and a clear view of what "good" looks like for testing, monitoring, environments and deployment. Proven approach to data quality: not just fixing reports, but improving definitions, controls and root causes in upstream systems and processes. Strong communication skills: able to explain trade-offs, risks, and delivery choices clearly to non-technical stakeholders, and comfortable being challenged. A high-standards, low-ego working style: collaborative, pragmatic, and focused on outcomes that stick (not dashboards that nobody uses). Must have developed a Data Platform from inception to completion. Managed and developed data engineers, forming a high-performing team.

About the Role

This is a greenfield leadership opportunity for an experienced FinOps professional to establish and lead the Cloud Financial Management (FinOps) function from the ground up. As the organisation accelerates its cloud-first strategy on Azure, the FinOps Lead / Manager will be the founding architect of the discipline building the processes, governance frameworks and culture of financial accountability that will underpin sustainable cloud adoption.

The role sits firmly within the Technology division and reports into Technology leadership. It is not a Finance function. Initially this is a hands-on individual contributor role; the FinOps Lead / Manager acts as the bridge between engineering teams and financial outcomes, translating cloud consumption into business value and ensuring spend decisions are informed, intentional and owned by the right people.

Key Responsibilities

Establishing the Function

• Design and stand up the FinOps operating model, defining ways of working, governance cadence and the foundations for future team growth
• Define and implement FinOps policies, standards and tooling across the organisation initially as a hands-on individual contributor while establishing the division.

Optimisation & Strategy

• Drive a continuous optimisation programme covering right-sizing, reserved instances, savings plans and decommissioning
• Develop and maintain cloud financial forecasting models that feed into technology and organisational planning cycles
• Identify and quantify cost-saving opportunities, presenting recommendations to senior Technology and Business stakeholders
• Build and manage FinOps tooling to improve cost visibility, showback and chargeback capabilities

Stakeholder Leadership

• Act as the senior FinOps authority, partnering with Engineering, Product and Architecture teams to embed cost-conscious design
• Engage Finance teams as a key stakeholder providing data and forecasts without being operationally accountable to them
• Present cloud financial performance at leadership and governance forums, translating technical metrics into business language
• Champion a culture of financial accountability across all engineering and technology disciplines

Education & Enablement

• Define and deliver a FinOps training and awareness programme for development and operations teams
• Establish communities of practice and shared tooling to scale FinOps knowledge across the organisation
• Produce clear reporting packs, dashboards and documentation on cloud financial performance

Skills & Experience

Essential

• Significant experience in FinOps, Cloud Financial Management
• Demonstrable experience leading or building a FinOps function not just operating within one
• Deep expertise in Azure cost management, governance tooling and Azure Policy
• Strong stakeholder management skills with the ability to influence at senior and executive level
• Experience developing forecasting models and presenting financial data to non-technical audiences
• Proven track record of delivering measurable cloud cost savings at organisational scale

Desirable

• FinOps Certified Practitioner (FinOps Foundation) or equivalent certification
• Azure certifications (e.g. AZ-104, AZ-900) and/or Power BI credentials
• Exposure to AWS or multi-cloud environments
• Experience in regulated sectors (e.g. healthcare, financial services)
• Familiarity with relevant regulatory frameworks including CQC, GDPR, NMC, GPhC and ICO
• Experience with collaborative working across insourced/outsourced and geographically dispersed teams

What Good Looks Like

In the first 12 months, the right candidate will have likely sstablished a functioning FinOps practice with clear processes, tooling and reporting in place. Delivered measurable, documented cost optimisation outcomes. Created a cloud financial governance framework adopted across Technology. Built trusted relationships with engineering leads, the CTO and Finance stakeholders. Introduced a FinOps maturity roadmap with clear milestones through to a ‘Run’ state
