Learning & Workforce Reinvention Senior Manager

Location: London, Manchester, Edinburgh

Career Level: CL6 — Senior Manager

The challenge we are solving The ability to build critical workforce skills at speed is now a strategic imperative at the highest level of enterprise. AI is rewriting roles, compressing skill lifecycles and exposing a fundamental gap between the capabilities organisations have and the capabilities they need to compete. For C-Suite leaders, CHROs, CLOs and Business Leaders, the question is urgent: how do we build enterprise-scale skilling capability — faster, more cost-effectively, and with measurable impact on business performance?

Accenture’s Learning practice is leading the answer. Powered by LearnVantage — our AI-native enterprise learning business and platform — we help the world’s largest organisations shift from isolated, costly training to personalised, AI-powered capability building that delivers productivity growth, workforce engagement and measurable learning ROI. We are building a market-defining position in this space, and we are looking for a senior leader who wants to help build this market — not just serve it.

As a team This role sits at the heart of Accenture’s Learning offering within the Talent Reinvention practice. We are a growth-oriented consulting team — not an L&D function — operating at the intersection of AI, learning strategy and enterprise transformation. Our sub-offerings span learning performance and innovation strategy, AI-powered learning technology, and end-to-end learning experience transformation.

The Learning offering is part of a broader Talent Reinvention practice that covers the full talent and transformation agenda: workforce strategy, organisation design, change and adoption, talent operating model reinvention, and skills-based organisation design.
