• Work with account and engagement leadership to develop accounts toward higher-maturity engagement models where it creates genuine value for both the client and EPAM.
• Represent EPAM credibly in senior client-facing conversations and take ownership of strategic client visits, aligning around client needs and EPAM's capabilities.
• Set the standard for client-centricity, empowering Delivery Managers to operate as true partners to their clients.
• Collaborate actively in presales and ensure smooth transitions from pursuit into delivery.
• Work closely with Sales, Account Management, and CEE Engagement leadership across the full engagement lifecycle, identifying delivery-led growth opportunities.
• Contribute to regional and global delivery leadership forums, influencing standards and sharing Poland's delivery expertise.
• Lead, mentor, and develop a strong community of Delivery Managers and Program Managers across Poland.
• Invest in career growth, active coaching, and a high-performance culture that balances client demands with team motivation.
• Contribute to hiring and talent strategy, attracting and integrating strong delivery talent.

Requirements

• Strong grasp of modern software engineering, cloud platforms, and AI-native delivery practices. Sees Poland's scale and EPAM's position at the forefront of AI-native delivery as a genuine opportunity. Motivated by the work itself, not the title. Leads hands-on.
