You Are:

A Strategy expert with deep professional experience working across the Software and Platforms industry - and a genuine obsession with what AI makes possible. You see around corners. You translate complex, fast-moving dynamics into sharp, actionable strategies that clients can execute at scale. You are not just keeping up with the AI revolution - you are actively shaping how your clients lead it. You thrive in ambiguity, energize the teams around you, and build the kind of trusted client relationships that last well beyond a single engagement. Whether you are advising a hyperscaler on their next platform play or helping an AI-native startup define its go-to-market model, you bring the intellectual rigor, creative instinct, and human connection to make it real.

The Work:

• Lead high-impact teams tackling the C-suite's most urgent challenges - from AI integration and enablement to total enterprise reinvention and technology modernization - developing bold strategies clients can execute with speed and confidence.
• Define the AI-enabled future for technology companies - hyperscalers, software players, AI-native disruptors, and social platforms - shaping the organizational strategies, visions, and roadmaps that give them a durable competitive edge.
• Reimagine how clients operate by embedding AI-powered tools, intelligent automation, and platform orchestration into the core of their business - turning operational complexity into a strategic advantage.
• Deliver sharp, differentiated insights on product portfolio optimization, platform monetization, and ecosystem partnerships - helping Software and Platform clients unlock new revenue streams and outpace the competition.
• Become an indispensable strategic partner to your clients, building relationships that extend well beyond individual engagements and position Accenture as the trusted advisor they turn to first.
• Shape the conversation in the industry - develop thought leadership, contribute to high-profile forums, and help define what the future of Software and Platforms looks like.
• Invest in the next generation - mentor junior strategists, accelerate their growth, and build the kind of team that delivers exceptional results consistently.
• Managers are expected to be hands-on in analysis and deliverable shaping while leading teams.
• Own all work products end-to-end, including quality, coherence, and readiness for client consumption.
• Responsible for day-to-day client stakeholder communication, expectation-setting, and internal team leadership.
• Travel as needed, up to 80%.

Here's What You Need:

• A Bachelor's degree.
• Minimum of 5 years of professional experience consulting for or working at a Software or Platform company, or a start-up.

Bonus Points If:

• You have an MBA or equivalent graduate degree.
• Strong client communication skills with a proven ability to influence and inspire senior executives.
• A proven track record of delivery on complex, high-impact client engagements where AI played a central role.
• Hands-on experience applying generative AI, machine learning, or AI-powered platforms to solve real business problems - for clients or within your own organization.
• Prior experience driving insights using visualization tools (e.g., Power BI, Tableau, Alteryx) and analytics tools (e.g., Adobe Analytics, Google Analytics).
• Familiarity with AI development ecosystems, LLM-based tooling, or AI platform strategies is a strong plus.
