  • Addressing the use of transformative digital technologies (including generative AI), analytics, or automation transformations.
  • Addressing highly customized commercial arrangements (investment pools, volume discounts, smoothed payments, irregular invoicing methodologies) in a way that is contractually sufficient.
  • Intersecting with various functions including sales, legal, finance, and delivery to act as a strategic and authoritative advisor to help optimize deal flow along with sales and contracting cycles.
  • Working closely with deal teams and legal in reviewing and negotiating agreements such as master agreements, services schedules, confidentiality agreements, and teaming agreements. Own risk consultation and contracting support for scope of work / SOW documents.
  • Ongoing and Post-Execution Risk Management and Contracting Support

  • Facilitate continued compliance with contractually required policies and processes and with the Firm's internal policies.
  • Work actively with account leadership and quality team to identify and help mitigate post-signature delivery and engagement risks.
  • Knowledge Management and Training Support
  • Maintain knowledge of core professional services (IT, Managed Services, Outsourcing) and product offerings to continue supporting contracting and risk matters in a fast-paced, constantly changing environment.

  • Work independently to manage contractual matters and risks and be the trusted QRM advisor on the largest, most critical deals.
  • Support QRM activities and initiatives focused on the Operate engagement model, working in partnership with the QRM Operate Lead - including developing best practices for :
  • Systematic risk evaluation and mitigation approaches (e.g., contractual and operational).
  • Reusable artifacts (e.g., playbooks, templates, checklists) for Risk Managers and practitioners to use to facilitate optimal risk navigation, contracting, and delivery outcomes.
  • Strategy and guidance around complex hybrid services engagements with third party technologies and subcontractors involved.
  • Identification and facilitation of resolution of Independence issues.
  • Commercial / financial issues and implications associated with certain Operate constructs (e.g., complex invoicing methodologies; investments, rebates, and "sticky deal constructs").
  • Educate and mentor Core Risk Managers on foundational Operate plays (e.g., AMS+, Deloitte-as-a-Service, Hybrid Services, and Sticky Deal Constructs), focused on building awareness and capacity to provide guidance and support to the practice.
  • Qualifications
