Job description

You’ve Never Been Satisfied with "Good Enough."

You want to make an impact, not just manage projects, but change how the world gets built. At Accenture Infrastructure & Capital Projects, you’ll do exactly that. You’ll help develop and deliver the factories, grids, transit systems, and public infrastructure that keep communities moving - and do it smarter, safer, and more sustainably than ever before.

You’ll work alongside people who think big and act bold - project managers, engineers, technologists, and strategists who blend real‑world experience with digital innovation and AI. Together, we’re transforming how capital projects are planned, managed, and executed, creating a better way to build for the future.

Because “good enough” builds the past. You’re here to build what’s next, on a team that outperforms every norm.

Responsibilities

• You’ll develop and execute sourcing strategies aligned with business goals.
• You’ll analyze spend and define category strategies for cost optimization.
• You’ll identify new suppliers and sourcing opportunities and ensure alignment with company objectives and margin targets.
• You’ll identify, evaluate, and onboard suppliers and build long‑term partnerships with key vendors, while managing supplier performance, KPIs, and scorecards.
• You’ll negotiate contracts, pricing, and service levels and lead cost‑reduction initiatives and continuous improvement programs.
• You’ll perform cost analysis, benchmarking, and “should‑cost” modeling.
• You’ll drive savings through negotiations and sourcing events (RFP, RFQ, RFI) and lead commercial negotiations with suppliers.
• You’ll define and manage contract terms and conditions and partner with legal, finance, and risk teams for compliance.
• You’ll ensure favorable pricing, quality, and service agreements and work with internal stakeholders (engineering, finance, operations, etc.).
• You’ll translate business requirements into sourcing strategies and act as liaison between suppliers and internal teams.
• You’ll support product development and operational needs and assess supplier risks (financial, operational, geopolitical).
• You’ll ensure supply continuity and business resilience and develop mitigation strategies and contingency plans.
• You’ll monitor market trends and supply conditions and lead and mentor sourcing/procurement teams.
• You’ll set KPIs, goals, and performance expectations and drive capability building and talent development.
• You’ll guide teams through sourcing initiatives and transformations and improve sourcing processes, tools, and systems (e.g., SAP, vendor management platforms).
• You’ll implement best practices and standardization and drive procurement transformation initiatives that will enhance efficiency, transparency, and governance.

• Bachelor’s degree
• Up to 7 years experience in Procurement/Purchasing
