The Opportunity
Are you a strategic consulting leader ready to build something meaningful?
We’re seeking a Head of Data & AI Advisory (APAC) to launch and scale our advisory practice across the region. This newly created leadership role is ideal for a management consulting professional who thrives at the intersection of strategy, data, AI, and client value creation.
You will define how enterprises across APAC adopt data‑driven and AI‑enabled strategies, working closely with Sales, Presales, and Delivery teams to shape high‑impact, advisory‑led solutions that deliver tangible business outcomes.
You’ll have the opportunity to shape a regional advisory capability from the ground up, influence how organizations adopt AI responsibly and at scale, and work alongside passionate experts in a fast‑growing, global environment.
What You’ll Do
Lead Strategic Client Engagements
- Partner closely with Sales (account strategy) and Presales (technical validation) during the discovery and pursuit phases.
- Act as the Lead Architect for the advisory phase, defining high‑level Data & AI frameworks (e.g. Data Governance, MLOps, GenAI roadmaps).
- Serve as a trusted advisor to C‑suite and senior stakeholders, facilitating discovery workshops and AI/data maturity assessments.
Build the Data & AI Advisory Practice
- Define the advisory methodologies, toolkits, and operating model for consistent delivery across APAC.
- Strengthen the organization’s “advisory muscle” by coaching delivery teams to engage clients strategically and uncover deeper business needs.
- Develop thought leadership assets (e.g. white papers, advisory blueprints) to support executive‑level conversations.
Grow a High‑Impact Team
- Build and mentor a lean, high‑calibre advisory team as the practice scales.
- Provide strategic oversight on key engagements to ensure alignment between advisory vision and execution.
