THE PRACTICE: This role will align to our Supply Chain and Engineering practice, supporting our Energy – Downstream (Refining) and Petrochemical clients. Accenture Supply Chain and Engineering helps clients leverage AI and digital technologies across product and asset lifecycles to build competitive advantage.

A single day over schedule can cost an operator millions of dollars in lost margin.

We are building Accenture’s Turnaround Modernization capability to help refining and petrochemical operators reinvent the end-to-end turnaround process with data, AI and digital technology – from AI-assisted scope development and scheduling to connected, real-time execution. We are looking for a Manager who pairs hands-on turnaround experience with a drive to change how turnarounds are delivered, to help lead that build – shaping our offerings, delivering for clients and growing a team of turnaround and technology specialists.
