Over the last 20 years at Accenture I have operated at the intersect of business and technology to help clients define strategies and the transformational architectures and roadmaps required to deliver them. My motivation is to support clients to adapt as they solve some of the most significant opportunities or challenges they face.
Increasingly, my work has focused on the role of technology and specifically data and AI as a determinant, not just an enabler, of strategy for our clients. I believe this is the most significant shift I have witnessed over the last ten years.
For the last 18 months, I have led Accenture’s data and AI business across the UK, Ireland, and Africa. I have the privilege of building a team and a set of capabilities that have kept us at the cutting edge of data modernisation and more lately, scaling AI and generative AI at an enterprise level. There has never been a more interesting time as a data leader, so I feel incredibly privileged to be in this role, working with clients and ecosystem partners to ensure the hype turns into real outcomes.
