Who We Are

We are Accenture's Supply Chain and Engineering reinvention partner for Life Sciences. We embed innovation, intelligence, and AI-native operations into the way the world designs, engineers, manufactures, and distributes products. We serve Life Sciences clients across the value chain to help bring lifesaving medicines and products to patients through harnessing the power of advanced technologies.

The Work:

Accenture is seeking a Consultant to drive hands-on execution across Life Sciences Warehouse and Transportation Management transformation programs within our Supply Chain & Engineering practice. We work with pharmaceutical, biotech, medical device, and specialty distributor clients to modernize warehousing and logistics operations — combining regulated-industry delivery expertise with AI-powered automation and intelligent transportation management. The role provides the execution depth needed across multi-workstream fulfillment programs, supporting the implementation of warehouse management and transportation solutions across both pharma and medical device client engagements. This role requires hands-on delivery depth across both warehouse and transportation management systems — candidates must bring meaningful experience in each.

Key Responsibilities:

• Support the delivery of warehouse management and transportation management system implementations across life sciences clients — managing project workstreams, coordinating with system integrators and client teams, and driving execution across platforms including SAP EWM/TM, Manhattan WMS/TM, Blue Yonder WMS/TM, and others in GxP-regulated environments.
• Support validation activities and audit trail documentation requirements consistent with life sciences quality standards — working across pharma and medical device regulatory frameworks to ensure system implementations meet applicable GxP, GDP, and quality management obligations.
• Lead design and implementation of TMS solutions for cold chain carrier management, lane optimization, and temperature excursion alerting across pharma and device distribution networks.
• Support the integration of warehouse and transportation management platforms within a broader enterprise architecture — connecting WMS/TMS solutions with ERP, quality management, and supply chain visibility systems to enable end-to-end operational execution.
• Apply AI and automation capabilities to warehouse and transportation operations — including intelligent slotting, AI-driven exception management, robotics integration readiness, and predictive quality alerts.
• Design order fulfillment processes for life sciences commercial, hospital, and IDN channels — including pick/pack/ship workflows, returns management, recall execution, and consignment or loaner inventory flows.
• Contribute to the development of reusable delivery assets, validated configuration templates, and warehouse design accelerators for the Life Sciences Fulfillment practice.
• Engage deeply in project delivery with hands‑on work, leading work products and supporting senior team members across active engagements.

Travel Requirements:

Travel is required for this role and could vary up to 75%

Here’s what you need:

• Minimum 3 years of hands‑on experience delivering both warehouse management and transportation management system implementations in pharmaceutical, medical device, or broader life sciences environments — candidates with experience in only one discipline will not be considered.
• Demonstrated platform fluency across both WMS and TMS — including hands‑on project delivery with SAP EWM/TM, Manhattan WMS/TM, or Blue Yonder WMS/TM. Familiarity with one side of the stack alone is not sufficient.
• Minimum 3 years of TMS delivery experience specific to life sciences distribution — including cold chain carrier management, regulated product routing, lane optimization, and temperature excursion alerting across pharma or device networks.
• Experience integrating WMS and TMS platforms within a broader enterprise architecture — connecting to ERP, quality management, and supply chain visibility systems to enable end‑to‑end operational execution.

Bonus Points If:

• Working knowledge of life sciences validation concepts and quality documentation requirements — including GxP, GDP, and applicable pharma or medical device quality management standards as they apply to system implementations.
• Working knowledge of order fulfillment process design — pick/pack/ship, returns, and recall workflows in regulated life sciences environments.
• Curiosity and growing fluency in AI, automation, and digital capabilities as applied to warehouse operations and logistics management.
• Strong delivery orientation — ability to execute independently, manage work products, and communicate clearly with client and project teams.
• Experience across both pharma and medical device distribution environments, or familiarity with the distinct fulfillment and quality requirements of each.
• Exposure to robotics, AMRs, or warehouse automation technologies in life sciences distribution.
• Familiarity with product traceability workflows — serialization, lot genealogy, or device traceability — integrated within WMS or TMS environments.
