And we are looking to hire an experienced Cyber Intelligence practitioner and consultant to an already outstanding team.

Accenture Security helps organizations prepare, protect, detect, respond to, and recover, at all points of the security lifecycle. We hire the very best security talent and arm them with the coolest tools and latest tech so they can help our clients build resilience as we create integrated, customized turnkey solutions. We blend risk strategy, digital identity, cyber defense, application security and managed service solutions to rethink the entire security lifecycle.

You Are

You Are passionate about security, love what you do and have a genuine desire to outsmart the bad guys. You have the experience to analyze a clients’ security posture, anticipate security requirements and help find right-sized solutions based on industry leading practices. You have a proven track record working successfully in a fast-paced, agile environment.

The ideal candidate has demonstrated success in the following:

The Work

The Work is an exciting opportunity to combine deep technical cyber intelligence expertise with consulting skills, delivering high-value engagements for Accenture’s largest clients.

You will serve as a trusted technical and delivery professional, embedding strategic and operational intelligence products and services into the client’s operating tempo and its business decisions. This person will also support business development as necessary. This is a role for a practitioner-consultant who is equally comfortable leading a threat intelligence briefing for a CISO, architecting an intelligence program uplift, optimizing cyber intelligence and security operations technology, and supporting operational teams during an acute crisis.

You will partner closely with the Cyber Intelligence country lead, cybersecurity delivery leadership and account teams, and Accenture’s broader Cyber Resilience & Defense professionals to ensure our services are delivered with the right combination of integrated expertise and quality for client value. You will also embed generative and agentic AI into the way you conduct your intelligence collection, analysis, production, and engagement delivery.

This role will report to the appropriate Cyber Intelligence country lead.

Responsibilities include:

• Own portions of the technical delivery of cyber intelligence engagements, spanning strategic, operational, and tactical intelligence, and adjacent cyber resilience and defense domains
• Provide deep subject matter expertise in cyber intelligence and at least one adjacent domain (e.g., detection engineering, CTEM, hunting, incident response, etc.)
• Support business development of new and follow on opportunities by contributing content and client context to scoping, proposal development, and client pitches
• Contribute to thought leadership, including research, publications, and client-facing points of view on emerging threats and technology

Travel may be required for this role.  The amount of travel will vary from 0 to 100% depending on business need and client requirements.

Here's what you need

• Minimum 5 years’ relevant experience in cyber intelligence or a closely related field and owning high-quality work as part of engagement delivery in a consulting, professional services, or product business

• Minimum of 5 years of demonstrated technical expertise in one or more cyber intelligence and adjacent cyber resilience and defense domains (e.g., threat intelligence and security operations platform implementation, digital risk protection, detection engineering, malware analysis, cyber defense operations)

• Minimum of 3 years of experience engaging directly with clients without supervision

• Bachelor's degree or equivalent (minimum 12 years) work experience. (If Associate’s Degree, must have minimum 6 years work experience)

​Bonus points if you have

• Deep experience with CrowdStrike, Google, Filigran, Recorded Future, and other industry-leading intelligence products and services

• Demonstrated experience contributing to original thought leadership on intelligence, cybersecurity, and emerging technology topics

• Experience leveraging generative and agentic AI in intelligence tradecraft and delivery

• Experience working across cyber resilience and defense domains in a distributed delivery model
