Applied Agentic AI Strategist

Location: London, UK

Salary: Competitive salary and package dependent on experience

Career Level: Manager

Accenture is a global professional services company delivering strategy, consulting, technology and operations. Within Accenture Song UKI, our Commerce and Experience practice helps organisations reimagine digital engagement through emerging technologies — including applied generative AI and agentic systems. We are embedding agentic AI into real commerce and experience ecosystems — moving beyond experimentation toward scalable, client‑ready solutions that create measurable business value.

The Role

As an Applied Agentic AI Strategist, you will design and prototype agentic AI solutions that integrate into enterprise environments. This is a hands‑on role focused on applied experimentation, rapid prototyping, and translating AI capabilities into practical business outcomes. This is not a pure engineering role. You will build and test working solutions using enterprise AI platforms and low‑code/no‑code tools, collaborating closely with engineering teams for production implementation.

What You’ll Do

• Build & Experiment

• Design and prototype agentic workflows using enterprise AI platforms (e.g., Copilot Studio, Gemini, OpenAI‑based tools, Adobe AI, Salesforce Einstein)
• Rapidly test and refine applied patterns such as retrieval‑augmented copilots, multi‑agent orchestration, and workflow automation
• Develop working proofs‑of‑concept (e.g., commerce copilots, service resolution agents, content enrichment workflows) that demonstrate tangible business value and scalability
• Identify reusable patterns and contribute to scalable applied AI approaches across commerce and experience ecosystems

• Translate generative AI capabilities into clear, practical solution approaches for business and technical stakeholders
• Support client engagements by demonstrating applied use cases and shaping AI adoption strategies
• Guide best practices across prompt design, orchestration, evaluation frameworks, and responsible AI guardrails
• Mentor cross‑functional teams (strategy, design, product, engineering) in applying agentic AI effectively
• Contribute to internal accelerators and reusable frameworks that strengthen Applied Agentic AI capability within Accenture Song

Core Qualifications

• Demonstrated hands‑on experience with generative AI tools and agentic platforms
• Practical understanding of prompt engineering, RAG, agent orchestration, evaluation approaches, and responsible AI
• Experience building AI prototypes or applied solutions within enterprise environments
• Strong communication and facilitation skills, with the ability to simplify complex AI concepts for diverse audiences
• Ability to collaborate effectively with engineering, product, and design teams
• Understanding of enterprise delivery constraints, including security, governance, integration, and scalability

Preferred Experience

• Applying AI within digital experience, commerce, retail, or CPG environments
• Familiarity with enterprise ecosystems such as CMS, CDP, PIM, DAM, search, or merchandising platforms
• Contributions to AI thought leadership (e.g., articles, presentations, white papers)
• Experience supporting innovation or transformation initiatives

What’s in it for you?

At Accenture in addition to a competitive basic salary, you will also have an extensive benefits package which includes 30 days vacation per year, private medical insurance and 3 extra days leave per year for charitable work of your choice! Flexibility and mobility are required to deliver this role as there may be requirements to spend time onsite with our clients and partners to enable delivery of the first‑class services we are known for.
