Visit us at . About Accenture CEO Advisory Accenture CEO Advisory works with chief executives, boards and their leadership teams on the decisions that set enterprise direction: where to compete, what to own, how to fund a shift in the portfolio, and what the operating model has to become to support it. The work sits upstream of execution but is judged on whether it survives contact with it, so we pair industry depth with the quantitative, technology and delivery capability to pressure-test an answer before a client commits capital behind it. About Accenture Commodity Markets Accenture Commodity Markets (ACM), part of Accenture CEO Advisory, is a global practice operating across multiple industries. It is one of the few global strategy practices offering a steep cross-industry learning curve alongside genuinely global project experience, working with organisations focused on commodity production, trading, logistics and marketing. We combine industry knowledge across energy, chemicals, soft commodities, agriculture, metals, mining, utilities, transportation and consumer goods with analytics-led core strategy consulting, digital and AI capability. Within Accenture we are known for the variety and complexity of the problems we take on, a close-knit global team, early responsibility for our people, rapid career progression and international exposure, having delivered projects in over 25 countries. Our solution areas are: 1- Investment and Asset Portfolio Optimisation: portfolio strategy, capital allocation, long-term market modelling, M&A support, and integrated optimisation across physical and financial positions. 2- Trading and Market Optimisation: trading strategy, positioning and risk management through advanced analytics, real-time insight, hedging, algorithmic trading and P&L attribution. 3- Commodity Markets Decision Platforms, Ecosystem and Execution: AI-enabled decision platforms, CTRM and ETRM selection, ecosystem partners (Salesforce, Palantir and others), data architecture, AI model development and automation. 4- Enterprise Activation and Operational Readiness: making sure organisations are ready to operate, trade and optimise from day one, covering operating model design, go-live strategy and capability build-out. 5- Commodity Sourcing and Exposure Management: sourcing, hedging and supplier strategy for commodity-exposed industries, optimising cost, risk and resilience under market volatility. About the Role in Thailand ACM in Thailand advises state enterprises, listed energy groups and large industrial corporates on decisions that set their direction for the next decade: how to position a portfolio through the energy transition, what gas and power market liberalisation does to a commercial model, whether an asset or an acquisition earns its cost of capital, and how to stand up the trading and commercial capability a deregulated market demands. Regulatory and transition depth in the Thai and wider ASEAN energy system runs through most of that work. Third-party access regimes, tariff structures, PPA economics and market design are commercial questions for our clients, and we are expected to hold a defensible view on them. We also build with AI as a matter of course. Market and competitor scans, document-heavy regulatory review and first-cut modelling run with GenAI in the workflow. That changes how much ground a small team can cover, and it raises the bar on what counts as analysis rather than description. The Thailand team is small and growing. You will own a workstream and its client relationships early, and you will present your own work to client leadership. Key Responsibilities Client Delivery and Development Work within project workstreams with supervision to identify value creation opportunities for our clients Work on and develop elements of analysis required to support project delivery Support client interviews and workshops, develop presentation materials and recommendations Work on engagements in Thailand and across Southeast Asia, with access to the ACM global staffing pool for projects further afield. Work in cross-office teams spanning ACM Thailand and global ACM, bringing structure and quantitative and qualitative rigour to problems across our solution areas. Work across corporate and portfolio strategy, energy transition positioning, market liberalisation and regulatory response, trading and risk capability set-up, operating model design, commercial optimisation, investment valuation and financial structuring, and balance sheet analysis. Use GenAI tooling as a default part of how you work, and take responsibility for the quality of what comes out of it.
