Help define requirements for and support the creation of a FinOps dashboard that provides actionable, near real-time visibility into consumption spending, utilization rates, optimization opportunities, and cost variance.

### Reporting

Develop and deliver accurate, timely operational reports for BT leadership and Finance partners, highlighting spending trends, risks, and efficiency gains.

### Process Governance & Partnership

Finance Process Integration: Collaborate with Finance partners (FP&A, Accounting) to help integrate IT financial processes into the company's overall financial planning and reporting cycles.
