• You'll lead multidiscipline teams during commissioning, provide technical guidance and resolve any testing/commissioning/energization issues and deliver all required documentation.
• Flexible: The work location for this role will include a mix of working remotely, onsite at a client or in an Accenture office or center.
• 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.
