About The Position

Accenture Security helps organizations prepare, protect, detect, respond to, and recover, at all points of the security lifecycle. We hire the very best security talent and arm them with the coolest tools and latest tech so they can help our clients build resilience as we create integrated, customized turnkey solutions. We blend risk strategy, digital identity, cyber defense, application security and managed service solutions to rethink the entire security lifecycle. This is an exciting opportunity to combine deep technical cyber intelligence expertise with consulting skills, delivering high-value engagements for Accenture’s largest clients. As a mid-level individual contributor, you will blend hands-on subject matter expertise in cyber intelligence and adjacent cyber resilience and defense domains with the ability to own your work quality on complex client engagements. You will serve as a trusted technical and delivery professional, embedding strategic and operational intelligence products and services into the client’s operating tempo and its business decisions. This person will also support business development as necessary. This is a role for a practitioner-consultant who is equally comfortable leading a threat intelligence briefing for a CISO, architecting an intelligence program uplift, optimizing cyber intelligence and security operations technology, and supporting operational teams during an acute crisis. You will partner closely with the Cyber Intelligence country lead, cybersecurity delivery leadership and account teams, and Accenture’s broader Cyber Resilience & Defense professionals to ensure our services are delivered with the right combination of integrated expertise and quality for client value. You will also embed generative and agentic AI into the way you conduct your intelligence collection, analysis, production, and engagement delivery.
