About the role

  • Oversee day-to-day financial operations: internal audits, invoice tracking, purchase order creation, and contract renewals/adjustments.
  • Act as the financial partner to GDIT leaders, ensuring cost governance, spend visibility, and budget adherence.
  • Work closely with Finance Controllers and Procurement to support negotiations and secure contract alignment before signature.
  • Analyse actual usage vs contracted services to identify optimization opportunities and advise technical experts during vendor discussions.
  • Monitor, forecast, and predict financial flows, providing insights to avoid cost overruns and improve cost efficiency.
  • Ensure strong financial governance by maintaining accurate data, tracking spend patterns, and recommending cost-saving levers.

Requirements

  • Experience working closely with IT teams and understanding how technical services operate (FinOps/cloud background is a strong plus).
  • Solid ability to track, forecast, and analyse financial flows in an operational/IT context.
  • Comfortable working with contracts, renewals, and vendor discussions, with strong attention to accuracy and cost control.
  • Analytical, structured, and able to take a step back to assess overall financial performance.
  • Strong communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to challenge and advise experts.
  • Curious, agile, and somewhat “atypical” profile—able to navigate between finance, procurement, and technical teams.
Benefits
  • High visibility across GDIT, Finance, Procurement, and vendor ecosystems.
  • Opportunity to shape FinOps culture and drive meaningful operational impact.
  • A collaborative, empowering, and international environment committed to innovation and patient impact.
