What this job asks for AI summary
A senior consulting role split between pre-sales and active delivery: on the sales side, the position leads deal shaping and solutioning for agentic AI opportunities from initial discovery through signed contract; on the delivery side, it serves as a subject matter advisor across client engagements, guiding architecture decisions, AI governance, operating model design, and responsible AI posture. The role suits a practitioner with deep hands-on experience across Microsoft's AI platform who is equally comfortable advising a CIO and directing technical delivery teams.

Why we read it this way (8)
This role is titled 'Senior Manager' and is explicitly a consulting/advisory leadership position at Accenture's Microsoft Business Group. The primary day-to-day work spans pre-sales solutioning, subject matter advisory on delivery, and C-level executive engagement — a blend of senior technical leadership and business development that sits most naturally under 11-3021 (Computer and Information Systems Managers). However, the role also carries substantial hands-on architecture and technical advisory duties, making 15-1299 (Computer Occupations, All Other) a plausible runner-up.
The role is posted across many US states/metros with varying salary bands ($112,900–$302,400/year). The range reported reflects the full span across all listed locations. No single primary metro is specified; New York/New Jersey carries the highest ceiling.
The 3-year hands-on requirement covers Azure OpenAI Service, Azure AI Foundry, Azure AI Search, Azure AI Agent Service, Azure ML, Prompt Flow/evaluations, and Microsoft Fabric collectively — the JD states them as a grouped list under a single 3-year gate, not individually.
The 10-year total experience requirement is the highest stated overall floor ('Minimum of 10 years in consulting or technology'). The 7-year requirements for deal-shaping and team leadership are role-level gates but subordinate to the 10-year overall floor.
Bachelor's degree is listed as required but the JD explicitly accepts 'equivalent (minimum 12 years) work experience' as a substitute, so the degree requirement is set to None.
Microsoft 365 Copilot, Copilot Studio (in regulated industries), and Fabric-enabled data modernization appear under the 'Bonus Points If' section and are treated as preferred.
Travel is explicitly noted as variable from 0–100% depending on business need; the role is not described as remote.
Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): Azure AI Agent Service.
