Job description
Join our SAP Advisory team, where strategy meets technology. We guide clients through the early stages of their transformation journey - shaping technology roadmaps, evaluating solution options, and defining architecture blueprints. Positioned between business strategy and delivery execution, our team ensures that every SAP-enabled transformation begins with clarity, alignment, and a future-ready design.
As a Technology Consultant in our SAP Advisory team, you'll work closely with senior business and IT stakeholders to assess current-state landscapes, define modern enterprise architectures, and recommend technology strategies that align with business priorities. You won't be expected to implement everything yourself - your role is to advise, design, and shape the solution before handing over to delivery teams.
We welcome specialists who bring deep expertise in one area, along with an appetite for learning across others.
What You'll Do
Advisory & Strategy
· Partner with enterprise architects, IT leaders, and functional stakeholders to align technology decisions with business goals.
· Translate business capabilities into future-state technology architectures that support scalability, extensibility, and operational efficiency.
· Clearly articulate the rationale and approach behind innovations on the SAP platform, helping clients understand both strategic value and technical feasibility.
· Develop client-facing proposals on complex technical topics, translating architectural concepts into clear, compelling narratives.
· Leverage Accenture's proven methodologies, tools, and accelerators to enhance delivery quality and speed across engagements.
Solution Architecture & Governance
· Define deployment roadmaps across greenfield, brownfield, or hybrid scenarios - balancing innovation with risk management.
· Shape the blueprint and design phases of SAP transformations, ensuring a strong foundation for implementation teams.
· Assess enterprise application landscapes and recommend modernization strategies based on clean core, composable, and cloud-native principles.
· Establish integration strategies and governance frameworks to support cohesive, cross-platform solutions.
· Guide the use of key SAP platform technologies to meet business requirements while adhering to best practices and maintainability.
Collaboration & Enablement
· Engage confidently with both technical and non-technical audiences to convey architectural decisions and their business impact.
· Act as a liaison between strategy consultants and technical delivery teams, ensuring continuity and clarity across phases.
