Job Description
Strategy Manager - Resources
Accenture’s Resources Strategy Practice is growing, and we’re looking for new joiners to our London team, including a Strategy Manager. Are you passionate about making energy and natural resources more affordable, secure, and sustainable?
About the Team
Accenture partners with leading international energy, utilities, and mining firms. As companies balance the traditional role of providing the world with secure, affordable energy and resources with the transition to low-carbon solutions, they are rethinking their business and operational models. With our thought leadership and culture of innovation, we apply deep industry expertise, diverse skill sets, and next-generation technology to each business challenge. This differentiates us from other strategy firms and uniquely positions us to address the complexities of the energy transition. Accenture’s distinctive approach and proven success have led us to be recognised as the only management consulting firm ranked Gold in Energy, Utilities, and Natural Resources by the FT in 2024, placing us at the forefront of business and technology strategy in the resources sector.

- Lead the end-to-end delivery of complex strategy and transformation engagements, owning workstreams or full engagements with accountability for quality, outcomes, and client satisfaction.
- Structure and solve complex, ambiguous business, change, and technology problems, setting the analytical direction for teams and ensuring insights translate into practical, actionable recommendations.
- Identify and support business development and sales opportunities, partnering with our leaders, clients, and senior managers across our practices to take the best of our firm to our clients.
- Collaborate closely with senior managers and partners, learning continuously and contributing actively to the development of the Resources Strategy team.
Examples of typical projects that you will support and contribute to include:
- Defining and delivering enterprise-wide energy transition and net-zero strategies.
- Identifying asset portfolio and capital allocation strategies to maximise value while reducing emissions.
- Designing new operating models and transformations to enable more agile, efficient, and digitally enabled organisations.
- Driving large-scale cost, productivity, and performance improvement programmes across upstream, midstream, downstream, utilities, and mining clients.
- Embedding data, digital, and AI-enabled decision-making into core business and strategic processes.
Job Qualifications
We are looking for high-potential individuals with a rich set of skills, a keen willingness to learn, and personal drive to grow rapidly within the organisation:
- Significant consulting and/or relevant industry experience in the Resources sector (Oil & Gas, Utilities, Mining).
- Deep understanding of resources industry trends, strategic challenges, competitive landscapes, and emerging business and operating models.
- Proven experience leading consulting engagements and managing teams in complex, fast-paced environments.
- Experience on transformation projects, including operational restructuring, organisational change, and technology-driven transformations.
- Strong business development capability, including shaping proposals, leading client discussions, and contributing to revenue growth.
- Comfort operating at the intersection of business and technology, with an understanding of how emerging technologies (e.g., AI, digital solutions) can deliver tangible strategic value for clients.
