The WorkWe are seeking a dynamic and experienced Practice Leader, Artificial Intelligence to define and drive our AI strategy within our mid-market SAP business group.

You will be responsible for developing our core AI offerings, shaping our messaging and positioning, and working in close collaboration with broader Accenture capabilities to adapt enterprise-grade tools and frameworks for the unique needs of mid-market clients. This role is both a builder and a thought leader: you will set the vision, create the assets, and help our teams win and deliver.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIESPractice & Offering Development- Define and build a portfolio of AI offerings tailored to mid-market SAP clients, including use-case accelerators, delivery frameworks, and packaged solutions that balance sophistication with speed-to-value

- Partner with sales, marketing, and account teams to embed AI themes into client conversations, proposals, and pursuit strategies
- Develop thought leadership content - points of view, case studies, client presentations - that establishes our group as a credible AI partner for mid-market enterprises
- Represent the practice externally at client briefings, industry events, and SAP ecosystem forums
Accenture Collaboration & Enablement- Serve as the primary liaison between our mid-market business group and Accenture's broader AI, data, and technology practices, ensuring we leverage enterprise investments without over-engineering for our segment
- Work with Accenture Centers of Excellence, alliance teams (including SAP BTP and AI integrations), and technology partners to access and adapt relevant capabilities
- Advocate internally for mid-market-specific investments, tooling adaptations, and resource commitments within the broader Accenture ecosystem
Leadership & Community Building- Build and mentor a growing community of AI practitioners within the business group, fostering a culture of learning, experimentation, and applied innovation
- Define capability development pathways and work with talent leaders to recruit, upskill, and retain AI talent relevant to our client base
