About the role

PwC Belgium’s Microsoft Practice, part of our Advisory division, helps organisations across the public and private sectors put Microsoft technology to work from Microsoft 365 and Dynamics 365 to the Power Platform and assistants such as Microsoft 365 Copilot. We have delivered adoption programmes for clients ranging from federal public services to large enterprises, and demand for this work continues to grow. As that demand grows, we are looking for an AI Adoption Lead to own the way our clients move from rolling out Microsoft 365 Copilot and Copilot Studio to using it well. This is a delivery role with a meaningful client-facing dimension, reporting into the Microsoft Practice leadership. In short: you make sure that once the technology is in place, people genuinely change how they work and the organisation sees the benefit.
