YOUR FINOPS LEAD, SIZED TO YOU
Fractional FinOps
Accountable FinOps leadership, engaged at the level your organisation requires: from advisory to full program ownership.
FinOps is an internal role,
and we fill it like one
You get control of your cloud and AI spend, and the peace of mind that someone owns it. How much of us you need depends on where you are.
FinOps only delivers when someone is accountable for the outcome, not just advising on it. That means a lead embedded in your teams, with the mandate to challenge decisions and the standing to make them stick.
That's how we plug in: inside your stand-ups, your tooling and your decisions. We stay accountable for the outcome as your needs change.
OUR APPROACH
How we work
Every engagement starts from your strategy and ends with measured benefits. Then we pick the next priority.

HOW WE EXECUTE
Based on a mutual agreed roadmap, we engage at the level your organisation requires.
Same team, same method, different intensity.
Advisory lead
Senior direction at the decisions that matter, guiding your teams without a permanent hire.
Embedded practitioner
A practitioner operating inside your teams, establishing the cadence and disciplines of a mature practice.
Program leadership
End-to-end ownership of the FinOps program, from strategy through execution and governance.
PROGRAM STRUCTURE
Built on the FinOps Framework
The FinOps Foundation's framework has become the industry reference for how organisations manage technology spend. We work to its four domains and their capabilities, so your practice is built on what the field has converged on, not on our house method.

CONTINUITY
Designed around your independence
Our engagement is structured so you are never dependent on it. As your practice matures, you set the direction: bring the capability in-house, retain us to operate it, or extend the mandate. The choice is yours at every stage.
TRANSITION IN-HOUSE
Build your own capability
When you choose to internalise FinOps, we prepare the ground. Knowledge is documented throughout, so the handover advances the practice rather than resetting it.
- Role definition
- Recruitment support
- Onboarding & handover
RETAIN AS OPERATOR
We run the practice
We continue to operate the practice at the agreed level, sustaining governance and reporting while your teams stay focused on delivery.
- Governance & reporting
- Steering committee
- Continuous optimisation
EXTEND THE MANDATE
Scale the ambition
As FinOps proves its value, we extend into new scopes and domains, up to full strategic ownership of the program.

- Executive alignment
