You've Never Been Satisfied with "Good Enough."
You didn't get into this to manage one piece of a project. You got into it to change how the world gets built.
At Accenture Construct, that's the job. You'll help deliver the data centers, power grids, rail networks, factories and public infrastructure that keep communities moving — smarter, safer and more sustainably.
You'll work alongside people who think big and act bold: project managers, engineers, technologists and strategists who pair real-world delivery with AI. And you won't be handed a slice of it. We take on whole programs, from early strategy through construction and handover, and we stand behind how they land.
THE WORK:
- You’ll assist with budget tracking, forecasting, invoice checks, accruals, and identifying project risks.
- You’ll help standardize cost, schedule, and risk tracking processes.
- You’ll prepare concise financial and risk updates for project teams and leadership.
- You’ll review contractor agreements, flag budget gaps, and highlight early risks during preconstruction.
- You’ll coordinate with scheduling and delivery teams to resolve issues quickly.
- You’ll support variance reports, cash-flow forecasts, and leadership reviews.
- You’ll link cost and schedule data for integrated project reporting.
- You’ll deliver accurate outputs under senior guidance and travel to data center sites as needed.
- Flexible: The work location for this role will include a mix of working remotely, onsite at a client or in an Accenture office or center
- With all our roles, there is some in-person time for collaboration, learning and building relationships with clients, peers, leaders and communities. As an employer, we will be as flexible as possible to support your specific work/life needs.
HERE’S WHAT YOU’LL NEED:
- 10+ years of experience in construction project controls
- Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Construction Management, or equivalent practical background
- Strong knowledge of cost tracking, change orders, and risk fundamentals
- Hands-on experience with Earned Value or resource-based data
- Background in data center, manufacturing, or complex commissioning projects
BONUS POINTS IF YOU HAVE:
- Excellent analytical skills, communication, and reporting organization
- Experience supporting or helping negotiate project changes or claims
- Prior experience in a project controls or cost management team environment
- Exposure to multi-stakeholder or multi-project programs
- Participation in implementing or improving project controls processes
- Ability to analyze metrics and recommend efficiency improvements
- Familiarity with Oracle Unifier or similar project management systems
WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU
- The biggest builds going. Hyperscale data centers, grid and generation, transit and rail, chip fabs, mines, water. If it's complex and it matters, it's on our list.
- You own the outcome. Not a workstream. Not a deliverable. Whether the program lands.
- AI that shows up on site. Program control that predicts instead of records. You'll use it, and you'll help shape it.
- Scale without the distance. More than 5,000 practitioners across the Americas, EMEA and APAC, on a team small enough that people know your name.
- Serious investment in you. Leadership development, technical upskilling and certification support.
- Work that outlasts you. People will use what you build for forty years without knowing your name. That's the point.
- Recognition that means something in this industry. Accenture Construct is ranked #6 globally in ENR's 2026 Top 50 Program Management Firms and #4 in Building Design + Construction's Top 80 Construction Management Firms for 2026.
