We drive tangible and sustained business outcomes, cost optimization, and stakeholder experiences bringing the power of One Accenture.

You Are

Dynamic and passionate, you thrive on driving network-led transformation across the communications and media industry, partnering with operators, cable and fiber providers, and enterprises to reinvent how networks are designed, built, and operated in an AI-defined era.

• Network lifecycle leadership (Design / Build / Operate): You bring deep, hands‑on expertise across the full network lifecycle—from network strategy, design and engineering, through deployment and build, to operations, optimization, and monetization—and you help clients accelerate outcomes and capital efficiency at every phase.
• Multi‑domain access expertise: You have strong experience across fiber/wireline, wireless (4G/5G, RAN/ORAN), and cable networks, serving both consumer and enterprise segments, and you understand how convergence across these domains reshapes cost, experience, and growth.
• OSS as an integral capability: You are well‑versed in OSS—inventory, service order management, activation and provisioning, discovery and reconciliation, and service assurance (fault, performance, and trouble management)—and you naturally weave OSS considerations into network‑led transformation, from legacy simplification through to next‑generation, API‑first, cloud‑native architectures.
• AI and autonomous networks: You understand how AI, GenAI, and agentic automation are transforming network design, deployment, and operations—from AI‑enabled design and intelligent deployment to autonomous, self‑healing operations and next‑generation NOCs—and how to scale intelligence across the network to drive both cost and customer‑experience outcomes.
• Executive‑grade client engagement: You engage credibly with senior network stakeholders—CTO, Network Operations, Network/Capital Planning, and Engineering leadership—translating technology shifts into investment cases, roadmaps, and operating‑model change, and coming across as a trusted thought leader and advisor.
• Sales and delivery excellence: You drive both origination and delivery—shaping offerings, building pipeline, and leading pursuits, while standing up and running the teams and assets that deliver measurable value at pace across the Network organization.
• Strategic and execution excellence: You craft comprehensive strategies and translate them into actionable, results‑driven roadmaps—including network rollout and deployment optimization, operations transformation, and OSS/BSS modernization—grounded in real operational outcomes rather than slideware.
• Leadership and relationships: You build trusted, C‑level client relationships across the network value chain and empower high‑performing teams to deliver, positioning Accenture as the reinvention partner of choice for the network.
• Travel as needed, up to 80%.

Here’s What You Need

• Minimum of 8 years of professional experience consulting for or working in the Communications & Media industry, with a focus on network / telecom clients.
• Minimum of 6 years of experience advising on or delivering network transformation initiatives—spanning one or more phases of the network lifecycle (Design / Build / Operate).
• Demonstrated experience across fiber/wireline, wireless (4G/5G, RAN), and/or cable networks, serving consumer and/or enterprise segments.
• Experience applying AI, GenAI, or agentic automation to network-led transformation—for example, AI‑enabled design, intelligent deployment, autonomous/self‑healing operations, or next‑generation NOCs.
• Working knowledge of OSS (e.g., inventory, provisioning/activation, orchestration, and service assurance) as an integral part of network transformation.
• Experience engaging senior network stakeholders (e.g., CTO, Network Operations, Network/Capital Planning, Engineering) and translating technology shifts into roadmaps and investment cases.
• Bachelor’s degree.

Bonus Points If

• You have experience working at a consulting firm or systems integrator serving communications/network clients.
• You have experience driving both sales/origination and delivery—shaping offerings, building pipeline, and leading pursuits.
