About this role
Celonis is the global leader in Process Intelligence and the pioneer of Process Mining technology. As one of the world’s fastest-growing enterprise SaaS companies, we are changemakers pushing the boundaries of what’s possible. We invest heavily in advanced AI capabilities—specifically our Process Intelligence Graph—to turn data insights into immediate business action. We believe there is a massive opportunity to unlock global productivity and sustainability by placing intelligence at the core of every business process. Join our mission to make processes work for people, companies, and the planet.
The Opportunity
We are seeking a senior transformation leader from Big Four/MBB, SaaS Value Advisory, corporate strategy and transformation function (or similar) to spearhead our most strategic Retail and Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) accounts.
Dedicated Strategic Focus: This executive-level role is structured as a high-leverage Individual Contributor (IC) position . It is designed for an elite strategy practitioner who wants to directly own and deepen relationships with Tier 1 CPG and Retail giants (think Mars, Target, PepsiCo), focusing entirely on market-facing value realization rather than internal practice management or administrative operational requirements.
Partnering with Enterprise Sales and Product Engineering, you will act as the principal strategic architect for these massive footprints. By leveraging Celonis—the foundational context layer for enterprise AI—you will translate omnichannel supply chain strategies into autonomous, data-driven execution, moving clients from static slide decks to realized operational value.

• Map Enterprise Digital Twins: Oversee the deployment of the Celonis Process Intelligence Graph to build systemic, end-to-end operational models tracking the flow of goods and data from supplier tier to manufacturing plant, distribution center, and ultimate point-of-sale (POS).
• Orchestrate $100M+ Business Cases: Direct the formulation of board-ready Celonis Value Assessments, delivering the economic justification, multi-million-dollar working capital reductions (freeing up trapped cash in inventory, DSO, and DPO), and logistics OPEX returns required to greenlight massive digital investments.
2. Transformation Leadership & Ecosystem Governance
• Steer Enterprise Transformations: Serve as the executive sponsor for high-visibility, Celonis-driven operating model overhauls for Fortune 500 consumer value chain clients, guiding them from diagnostic discovery to closed-loop automation.
• Architect Celonis Centers of Excellence (CoEs): Design a
