Got a call today from Accenture about an SAP Associate Director position. Casual conversation, but numbers were thrown out 220-240 plus bonus. I've got a recruiter pitch, but what does that job really look like. Are those numbers in line with what is there - any additional wiggle room I might push for?

I’m in Accenture Strategy, but work a lot with these roles. This level is right below Managing Director. If based in our Technology practice, the numbers seem right - but you can always try to push if you’d like, especially with sign on bonus.

The job day to day depends on what clients you’re assigned to, but the ones on my client are pretty busy with S4 HANA implementations. The ones I work with seem generally happy, with some of them being recently promoted to Managing Director.

The best advice I can give is - if you’re looking for something new, if this role advances your career path, and if the numbers align to your future earning goals, then go for it.

For associate director, these numbers look righht..ask for a bit more..
This level is either a step to MD in 2-3 years or a specialized SME that wants to stay at This level and do more SME/delivery work than sales of a typical MD..so decide for yourself and understand during discussions/negotiations

How many yoe

Wow take it probably ask for more

When I was at ACN there was no AD role, it was Sr. Manager. Have they created a new level in between SM and MD?

Yes..last 4-5 years

Seems ok for first year "associate director", I'd ask for 260k base with your YOE.

Are firms willing to negotiate the role with campus hires? I received an offer for a big 4 in risk, which I signed early in September, but just now received another offer in TAS from a different firm. While I much prefer the big 4 firm, I do not want to work in risk anymore. Would a big 4 be willing to change groups? Have you heard of anyone able to do this? I feel kind of bad, but I truly despise the idea of working in risk now. ( My friend who's in the role right now hates it)
