As a team:

Accenture offers a unique opportunity for impact and career growth. In AMBG you will be part of a unique joint venture with Microsoft of over 80,000 professionals, 20 times Microsoft Global SI Partner of the Year, and recognised as a leader across categories including AI and Business Applications by analysts including Everest Group, Forrester, and IDC.

We offer our clients a complete partnership at every stage of their transformation journey - from defining strategy through delivery of technology and into managed service or outcome-based offerings.

Generative and agentic AI presents a huge opportunity for our clients to reinvent how they work, and Microsoft Copilot is at the heart of that transformation. This is a high-growth area for the Accenture Microsoft Business Group (AMBG), driven by Microsoft's significant investments in Copilot Studio, M365 Copilot, and Azure OpenAI - and the continued expansion of the Microsoft intelligent cloud platform.

As a Technology Delivery Associate Manager you will:

• Lead end-to-end delivery of Microsoft Copilot Studio and M365 Copilot-based AI solutions for enterprise clients, taking full ownership of technical architecture, delivery governance, and programme quality from discovery through to hyper care.
• Own the technical solution architecture across Copilot for M365, Copilot Studio, and Azure OpenAI integrations, ensuring designs are scalable, secure, and aligned with client business outcomes and Accenture delivery standards.
• Drive enterprise adoption of Microsoft Copilot capabilities - Copilot for M365, custom Copilot Studio agents, and Azure OpenAI-powered experiences - translating emerging AI capabilities into measurable client value.
• Manage senior stakeholder relationships across client and Accenture, acting as a trusted advisor to business and technology leaders and ensuring clear, consistent communication on programme status, risks, and decisions.
• Lead and manage cross-functional delivery teams including architects, engineers, business analysts, and change specialists, providing technical oversight and mentoring to ensure high-quality, on-time delivery.
• Establish and embed programme governance frameworks - including risk management, delivery cadences, financial tracking, and quality assurance - in complex Financial Services and enterprise environments.
• Design adoption and change management strategies that accelerate user and organisational uptake of Copilot and AI-powered tools, working with business stakeholders to embed new ways of working.
• Collaborate with sales and solutioning teams to shape pursuit strategies, contribute to proposals and statements of work, and support commercial negotiations for Microsoft Copilot and AI engagements.
• Navigate the full Microsoft M365 and Azure ecosystem to advise on integration patterns, data security, compliance considerations, and AI governance - ensuring responsible deployment of AI in regulated environments.
• Contribute to Accenture's Copilot and AI community of practice, sharing delivery insights, developing reusable assets, and helping to build internal capability across the AMBG practice.

• Proven experience managing and leading cross-functional delivery teams in large, complex organisations, with the ability to motivate and develop teams across technical and non-technical disciplines.
