Quality, Training and Policy (QTP) Lead

The QTP Lead is accountable for setting the direction, design, and execution of quality and training strategy across multiple AI sales motions. The role ensures that strategy is translated into consistent, high-quality delivery at scale, shaping how sales capability, quality standards, and performance improvement are governed and embedded across a rapidly growing account of 80+ sellers.

This role operates at the intersection of strategy, transformation, and delivery. It is responsible for defining how sales quality is measured and improved, how performance insight informs learning and enablement, and how training and quality disciplines scale as the AI account grows. It brings industry best practice on learning and enablement to how Accenture designs, governs, and evolves learning and quality capabilities in a high-growth sales environment.

The role line manages a growing team, initially comprising a Training Lead and two Sales Quality Analysts, with clear accountability for the uptime, consistency, and effectiveness of training and quality delivery. As the sales team grows, the QA function and the scope of this role will scale accordingly, creating a sustained platform for client value, operational maturity, and leadership impact.

Working closely with account leadership, the S&C Insights team, Sales Operations, and client stakeholders, this role plays a central role in shaping how the account sells today and how it continuously gets better at selling over time.
