Accenture's Life Sciences MedTech practice sits at the intersection of science, technology, and human impact. We partner with the world's leading MedTech companies to reinvent how they discover, develop, and deliver innovations that improve patient outcomes.

Our R&D practice is one of the fastest-growing areas of our business — and we're looking for the leaders who will own a significant piece of it.
Job Description:
This is a business leadership role, not a senior delivery role. We are looking for a Principal Director who has already built and run something meaningful — a practice, a business unit, a market — and is ready to do it again at Accenture scale.
You will own a defined segment of our MedTech R&D growth agenda: setting the strategy, building the team, originating and closing major client engagements, and being accountable for the P&L. You have the credibility to walk into a boardroom conversation with a Chief R&D Officer and be seen as a peer. AI fluency is not a nice-to-have — it is central to how you lead and what you sell.
Travel - candidate should be willing to travel up to 75% to client locations.
