Business Consultant – UiPath

About the role

As a Business Consultant at UiPath, you are a trusted advisor to customer executives, helping them scale their Automation Programs and use the UiPath Platform to meet their strategic business objectives. You bring a customer-first mindset and turn automation and agentic AI ambitions into operating models, roadmaps and measurable value.

You work with automation program leaders across EMEA, from first strategy and discovery through scaling to enterprise-wide maturity. You combine management consulting rigour with hands-on knowledge of RPA, IDP, AI/ML, agentic automation and orchestration (including UiPath Maestro).

Key Responsibilities

What you will do at UiPath

Strategic program guidance

• Advise customer automation program leadership on strategic direction, governance and operating model evolution, to prevent or resolve operational bottlenecks.
• Guide customers through their automation maturity journey, from first deployments to an enterprise-wide, AI-enabled automation capability.
• Provide experience-led decision support and program oversight to execute the automation roadmap and adoption plan, and course-correct where needed.
• Take on interim leadership roles for customers where needed, such as acting CoE lead or program director.

Operating model, CoE and governance

• Design and implement automation operating models and Centers of Excellence, including roles, RACI, processes and governance.
• Define AI and agent governance: human-in-the-loop controls, guardrails, model risk, and alignment with the EU AI Act, GDPR and DORA where relevant.
• Design and launch citizen developer programs, including community, training paths, guardrails and support model.
• Lead change management: stakeholder mapping, communication, upskilling and adoption plans.

Discovery, value and business case

• Run discovery and opportunity identification workshops and process assessments, using process and task mining where useful.
• Help customers identify, prioritise and quantify high-value automation and AI opportunities with clear metrics: cost savings, capacity released, cycle time, quality and risk reduction.
• Build and refine TCO and ROI frameworks and business cases that support automation program investments. Set up value realisation tracking, KPIs and benefits reporting, so leadership can see the program's impact.

Stakeholder alignment and collaboration

• Facilitate complex conversations across executive leadership, business, IT, risk and technical teams. Educate customers on leading practices for scaling automation across the enterprise and maximising value realisation.
• Work closely with Sales, Product & Engineering, Customer Success and Professional Services in your region to share learnings and deliver maximum customer value.
• Engage UiPath partners to position and deliver automation programs at scale.
• Contribute to practice development: reusable assets, case studies, thought leadership and support for presales and proposals.
