Job description

We're working with an established specialist Data & AI consultancy that's growing in Queensland. They're looking for a Client Executive to build and maintain client relationships in Brisbane.

The role

You’ll spend your time with technology and business leaders across Brisbane, understanding their priorities and finding where data and AI can help. That could be a data platform uplift, a transformation program or an advisory piece of work.

When you find an opportunity, you’ll shape it with the client and work with the sales and delivery teams to put the proposal together. You’ll have support on pre‑sales and proposals, and a delivery team to do the work, while you stay close to the client and the delivery to make sure they get what they need.

The business is technology agnostic, so conversations start with the client’s problem, not a product to sell.

You’ll also:

• Build a pipeline of Data & AI work across Brisbane
• Lead proposals and estimates with support from the wider team
• Give advice on data strategy, analytics and architecture
• Mentor consultants and help keep quality high on delivery
• Build relationships with technology vendors and partners
• Help shape how the business grows in Queensland
