Job Description

Role: Technology Transformation & Delivery Manager

Location: London, Manchester or Edinburgh

Mobility: Up to 100%

About the team

Technology Strategy & Transformation leads at the intersection of business and technology, driving client value through AI, technology and data. Within it, Technology Transformation & Delivery is the control tower for complex execution: we deliver transformation at speed and scale for COO and CIO clients running technology modernisation, AI integration, data platform transformation and complex integration or divestment.

The role

You will run a transformation office or a major workstream end to end, accountable for the quality of what leaves your team, the credibility of the plan and reporting in front of client executives, and the people delivering it. You will often be the most senior Accenture delivery presence in the room: our Managers run client governance without cover above them, holding the line on scope and handling the difficult conversation when a milestone is at risk.

What we're looking for

Essential

  • Substantial experience leading delivery or a transformation office on large, complex, technology-enabled programmes.
  • Proven ability to run client governance independently, including escalation and challenging stakeholders.
  • Depth in integrated planning, risk and dependency management, governance design and executive reporting.
  • Experience managing a delivery team and assuring the quality of other people's work.
  • Commercial awareness: scope control, change control, and the impact of delivery decisions on margin.
  • A point of view on AI in programme delivery, with evidence of having applied it.
  • Working knowledge of delivery and reporting toolsets (Power BI, Power Platform, Azure DevOps, Jira, Clarity or similar).

Desirable

  • Consulting at Manager level, or equivalent client-side programme leadership.
  • Agile, waterfall and hybrid delivery at scale.
  • Multi-vendor programmes, including vendor performance management.
  • Business readiness, benefits realisation or process reengineering experience.
  • Certification such as MSP, P3O, PRINCE2 Practitioner, APM or SAFe.

What we offer

A practice being rebuilt around AI-led delivery, with real scope to shape how it operates. Our largest and most complex client programmes, and a visible path to Senior Manager. Continuous learning, including Accenture's AI and delivery capability programmes.

What’s in it for you

At Accenture in addition to a competitive basic salary, you will also have an extensive benefits package, private medical insurance and 3 extra days leave per year for charitable work of your choice!

Accenture reserves the right to close the role prior to this date should a suitable applicant be found.
