Job description

As a (Senior) Security Consulting Manager in the Resources Security industry group, you will be responsible for overseeing security-related activities at one of our clients in the following sectors: energy, chemicals and utilities.

You will bring together technical, business, and commercial expertise to help clients address their complex security challenges.

We are looking for people with a broad understanding in several security domains. This includes security of emerging technologies (e.g., AI), security for Operational Technology (OT), security operations (e.g., vulnerability management and detect & response), cyber strategy and IAM combined with strong commercial acumen.

In this role, you will work with delivery teams to ensure existing projects are operating as expected, while also building relationships and developing new opportunities with clients. You will act as a bridge between the client, the client account team, and our group of experts in the security domain teams.

Key Responsibilities:

• People: As part of the Accenture Security team, you will operate within the Resources Security industry group, one of the five industry groups in the Netherlands. Clients are undergoing (security) transformations that change their business and way of working, and a strong understanding of these industries is essential.
• Processes: You will leverage your industry-specific knowledge to help clients define, implement, and run tailored security solutions, ensuring secure business and IT operations.
• Technology: You will have the opportunity to develop expertise in a wide range of innovative tools, technologies, and methodologies across all Security offerings.
• Data: Operating in a data-driven environment, you will utilize insights to deliver projects and identify new opportunities for clients.

With all our roles, there is some in-person time for collaboration, learning, and building relationships with clients, peers, leaders, and communities. As an employer, we will be as flexible as possible to support your specific work/life needs.

Who We Are – Security

Joining our team means becoming part of a close-knit group of Security professionals who serve Accenture’s clients with the best and brightest insights into the latest Security trends. We are united by our core values to challenge our clients’ status quo and build relationships based on trust. Our shared goal is to keep our clients and the people they serve protected while building a cyber-resilient future together.

In practice, this means deploying cutting-edge security systems, using AI to analyze security risks, and developing defense strategies based on a combination of technology and user behavior. You will have the freedom to take a proactive and creative approach to find the best solutions for our clients’ specific security challenges.

We also prioritize maintaining a strong team identity and culture within the security group. Throughout the year, we organize various (social) events, including an annual ski trip, parties, BBQs, and more.

• A Security or technology-oriented, either managerial or technical in nature (preferred).
• 7–10 years of work experience in Cyber Security
• Experience and a network within large organizations.
• Proven project management and/or consultancy experience.
• Strong commercial experience, with the ability to integrate security expertise into business strategies, and experience in responding to RFPs
