Job description

You’ve Never Been Satisfied with “Good Enough.”

You didn’t get into this to manage one piece of a project. You got into it to change how the world gets built.

At Accenture Construct, that’s the job. You’ll help deliver the data centers, power grids, rail networks, factories and public infrastructure that keep communities moving — smarter, safer and more sustainably.

You’ll work alongside people who think big and act bold: project managers, engineers, technologists and strategists who pair real-world delivery with AI. And you won’t be handed a slice of it. We take on whole programs, from early strategy through construction and handover, and we stand behind how they land.

Because “good enough” builds the past. You’re here to build what’s next.

THE WORK:

• You’ll lead the development and implementation of alternative delivery strategies for major infrastructure and transportation programs.
• You’ll evaluate and recommend delivery methods such as Public-Private Partnerships, Design-Build, Progressive Design-Build, CM/GC, and DBFOM based on project complexity, funding, schedule, risk, and agency objectives.
• You’ll advise public agencies on P3 program development, procurement strategy, project structuring, risk allocation, commercial agreements, and contract administration.
• You’ll establish program governance, procurement frameworks, implementation procedures, and performance requirements that support successful delivery from initial planning through construction.
• You’ll lead the development of RFQs, RFPs, technical requirements, performance specifications, evaluation criteria, and other procurement documents.
• You’ll coordinate public agencies, private developers, design consultants, contractors, legal advisors, financial stakeholders, and multidisciplinary delivery teams.
• You’ll identify and manage commercial, technical, contractual, and delivery risks while maintaining alignment with program objectives and contractual obligations.
• You’ll facilitate executive meetings, stakeholder negotiations, and presentations that translate complex alternative delivery requirements into practical, executable program strategies.

Flexible: This role includes a mix of remote work, client-site work, and time in an Accenture office or center.

WHAT’S IN IT FOR YOU

• The biggest builds going. Hyperscale data centers, grid and generation, transit and rail, chip fabs, mines, water. If it’s complex and it matters, it’s on our list.
• You own the outcome. Not a workstream. Not a deliverable. Whether the program lands.
• AI that shows up on site. Program control that predicts instead of records. You’ll use it, and you’ll help shape it.
• Scale without the distance. More than 5,000 practitioners across the Americas, EMEA and APAC, on a team small enough that people know your name.
• Serious investment in you. Leadership development, technical upskilling and certification support.
• Work that outlasts you. People will use what you build for forty years without knowing your name. That’s the point.
• Recognition that means something in this industry. Accenture Construct is ranked #6 globally in ENR’s 2026 Top 50 Program Management Firms and #4 in Building Design + Construction’s Top 80 Construction Management Firms for 2026.

ABOUT ACCENTURE CONSTRUCT

• Accenture Construct is Accenture’s global capital projects business.

• We plan them, engineer them, deliver them and hand them over — and unlike most of this market, we’re on the hook for whether they land on time. More than 5,000 practitioners across the Americas, EMEA and APAC. One team that owns the whole thing.
