We are seeking a strategic Manager to join our AI & Data Tech Consulting team, focused on shaping how clients adopt Agentic AI and GenAI — and how the firm takes its AI offerings to market. The ideal candidate brings a blend of AI product strategy, solution positioning, and pursuit leadership, with enough technical fluency to credibly translate AI capabilities into business value, without being a hands-on builder.

You will work closely with account leaders, solution architects, C-suite stakeholders, and alliance partners to win and shape AI programs — owning the narrative from opportunity qualification and RFP response through solution storyboarding, commercial framing, and client orals.

WHERE YOUR TIME GOES

■  Partner with client leadership and Operating Partners to define AI / Agentic AI vision, use-case portfolios, and adoption roadmaps.

■  Build use-case prioritization frameworks (value vs. feasibility vs. risk) and translate them into phased roadmaps (discovery → MVP → scale).

■  Develop business cases with ROI, cost-to-serve, and value-realization metrics that leadership can fund against.

■  Frame AI operating models — CoE design, governance, Responsible AI guardrails, and human-in-the-loop controls.

■  Knowledge of business process transformation and industry value chains (Health, FS, Consumer, Industrials) would be an added advantage.

■  Shape and package AI offerings, accelerators, and assets into market-ready propositions — positioning, messaging, pricing logic, and differentiation.

■  Build sales enablement collateral: pitch decks, solution one-pagers, executive pagers, demo storylines, case studies, and battle cards.

■  Conduct market, competitive, and analyst research (vendors, hyperscalers, AI-native startups) to inform build / buy / partner decisions and offering roadmaps.

■  Work with alliance partners (Microsoft, AWS, Google, ServiceNow, Salesforce, etc.) on joint GTM motions, co-sell plays, and partner-funded programs.

■  Track adoption and pipeline KPIs for offerings and feed market signals back into the offering roadmap.

■  Lead end-to-end RFP / RFI / RFQ responses for AI and data programs — bid / no-bid qualification, win themes, solution storyline, and response orchestration.

■  Translate client requirements into a crisp solution narrative, scope, delivery approach, staffing model, and commercial construct, in collaboration with architects and delivery leads.

■  Own proposal quality — compliance matrices, executive summaries, value articulation, risk and assumption logs.

■  Prepare and lead client orals, executive workshops, and proof-of-value storyboards; coach pursuit teams on messaging.

■  Maintain a reusable pursuit library of proposal content, case studies, and credentials.

■  Working understanding of LLMs, RAG, Agentic AI frameworks, AI evaluation & observability, and LLMOps — enough to engage architects and challenge solutions credibly.

■  Awareness of AI risk, regulation, and governance (EU AI Act, NIST AI RMF, ISO 42001) and how they shape client buying decisions.

■  Familiarity with cloud AI platforms (Azure OpenAI, AWS Bedrock, Google Vertex AI) and enterprise data platforms (Databricks, Snowflake) at a solution level.

■  Comfort with AI productivity tools to accelerate research, content, and proposal creation.

■  Work closely with account leaders to identify, qualify, and shape opportunities and build tailored value propositions for strategic accounts.

■  Build trusted relationships with client CXOs, product owners, and transformation leaders.

■  Represent the firm at analyst briefings, industry forums, webinars, and thought-leadership platforms; author POVs, whitepapers, and blogs.

■  Lead and mentor a small team of strategy consultants and pursuit analysts.

■  Orchestrate collaboration across solution architects, delivery, sector specialists, alliances, legal, and pricing teams.

■  Drive knowledge sharing, offering playbooks, and capability-building across the practice.

■  MBA / PGDM in Strategy, Marketing, or Business Management from a premier institute. Engineering or quantitative undergraduate background preferred.

■  8–12 years of experience across AI / data product management, strategy consulting, solution / pre-sales, or GTM roles.

■  Proven track record of shaping and winning AI, GenAI, or data-driven transformation deals, or of taking AI products from strategy to launch and adoption.

■  Experience building offerings, roadmaps, business cases, and executive-facing collateral for enterprise clients.

■  Exposure to market research, competitive benchmarking, startup / vendor evaluation, or innovation programs is a strong plus.

■  Exceptional storytelling and executive presence — able to turn complex AI concepts into a compelling, simple business narrative.

■  Strong structured thinking and problem-solving; comfortable working under pursuit deadlines.

■  Excellent written communication, presentation, and stakeholder management skills, especially with C-suite executives.

■  Influencing without authority across large, matrixed pursuit teams.

■  GenAI / AI strategy certifications (Microsoft, AWS, Google, Coursera, ISB / IIM executive programs, etc.)

■  Product management or agile certifications (SAFe POPM / PM, Pragmatic, CSPO), Design Thinking.

■  APMP (proposal management) certification is a plus.

■  Shape how leading global enterprises adopt AI — and how the firm wins in the AI market.

■  Work at the intersection of strategy, technology, and growth, with direct visibility to account and practice leadership.

■  Collaborate with a team of AI experts, solution architects, and industry specialists in a highly entrepreneurial environment.
