Contract Managers must be capable of managing contracts, including subcontracts in accordance with company policies and procedures, applicable laws and client business requirements. Contract Managers are expected to work closely with Accenture business/client units and project teams and maintain a high level of visibility on the account as they perform their contract management.
Contract Managers assist with managing clients in a manner that maximizes value for Accenture and our clients. Contract Managers may also direct the work activities of junior contract management professionals and other related engagement staff allocated to a business or client unit, acting as a role model for contract management staff and a trusted partner to the business. Contract Managers are client facing and have a key role in building trusted relationships with client counterparts.
