About the role

Engagement Manager is a senior client-facing role responsible for pipeline development, account strategy, and long-term engagement management within the vertical. The role focuses on converting AI capabilities into funded, deployable programmes by engaging with CXO and technical leadership and managing complex enterprise engagements.

Responsibilities

  • Own the day-to-day management of active client engagements, from scoping and alignment through to operational handover and adoption
  • Serve as the primary point of contact for clients across the engagement lifecycle; manage expectations proactively and honestly
  • Translate client operational problems into precise briefs that deployment and engineering teams can act on
  • Track delivery against commitments; surface risks early and drive resolution without waiting for escalation
  • Work with Strategic Deployment Engineers to ensure what is being built reflects what the client actually needs
  • Support pipeline development: account mapping, stakeholder outreach, and PoC scoping
  • Build and maintain working relationships with mid-to-senior client stakeholders; grow account depth over time
  • Surface ground-level observations back to the vertical as market intelligence

Qualifications

  • 4–6 years of professional experience; foundational background at a top-tier consulting firm strongly preferred — with a track record of owning complex analytical work, structuring ambiguous problems, and being accountable for outcomes
  • At least 2 years in strategic or complex enterprise GTM, account management, or programme delivery — where you owned client relationships, not just supported them
  • Comfort operating in long-cycle, relationship-driven environments where trust is built over months, not deals
  • Strong written and verbal communication, able to hold a room with senior stakeholders and write briefs that people act on
  • Familiarity with GenAI or ML concepts sufficient to engage credibly with technical teams and translate capability to clients
  • Experience in or adjacent to defence, government, critical infrastructure and complex enterprises is a plus
