AI Advisor – Retail – Strategy & Consulting
Job Description
We Are
Accenture’s Data & AI Strategy practice sits at the forefront of leveraging data, analytics and generative technologies to reinvent enterprises. By combining strategic insight with emerging AI capability, we help clients unlock new value, reshape operations and transform customer experiences.
You Are
As an AI Advisor, you are a motivated, hands-on consultant who helps clients identify AI opportunities, evaluate strategic implications and support the early stages of solution design and roadmap development. You work closely with senior advisors and architect teams to ensure our clients’ AI strategy is grounded in business reality and technological possibility.
The Work
Support engagements focused on AI/data strategy: engage in discovery workshops, conduct research on AI/LLM technologies and market trends, help identify business-driven use cases, and prepare strategic insight materials.
Assist in AI maturity assessments: work with clients to assess current data/AI capabilities, identify gaps, benchmark against best practices and contribute to recommendation frameworks.
Contribute to business case articulation: support estimation of cost, value, risk, investment timing and resource implications for AI/LLM-enabled initiatives.
Support translation of strategy into execution: help define high-level roadmaps, target operating model components, technology and platform implications, and change-impact considerations.
Prepare client-facing presentations, workshop materials, strategic briefs and internal capability content; collaborate with cross-functional team members across strategy, architecture, design and delivery.
Help build the internal AI Strategy practice: contribute to thought-leadership, research, content development, and support team capability building and mentorship.
Qualifications
What You Need
3+ years in consulting, analytics, digital transformation or data strategy roles, with exposure to AI/ML or generative technologies.
Solid analytical and communication skills: able to support strategic workshops, present findings and work collaboratively with senior stakeholders.
Comfortable working in ambiguity, comfortable with emerging AI/LLM topics and able to learn quickly.
English is required for this position as this role will regularly interact with English-speaking stakeholders across Canada. Due to the significant high volume of interactions with these English-speaking stakeholders, which is inherent to this position, it is not possible to reorganize the company's activities to avoid this requirement.
A University Degree is required for this position
Bonus Points
Experience with generative AI or LLM-enabled solutions (e.g., prompt engineering, RAG design patterns, agentic workflows).
Familiarity with responsible AI, AI governance, or early-stage technology evaluation and ideation.
