Managing director and associate General Counsel - contracting Latin America | Accenture
Professional services firm Accenture has operations across the world, and Jose Moscati operates as one of the most senior figures in its Latin America business working out of São Paulo. As managing director for Latin America, Moscati takes responsibility of a regional department that houses a large amount of people including approximately 60 contract staff, 180 off-shore and service centre professionals and around 25 lawyers. In his associate General Counsel role, Moscati directly supervises the contracting team of 10 executives, who oversee the smooth operation of ‘the most complex operations in the region’. With almost two decades within Accenture’s business, Moscati has held several different roles, moving around the business both geographically and organisationally. Citing his greatest achievements, Moscati explains how he has created, implemented and reshaped various aspects of Accenture’s business in different locations. During his time as director of legal services for China and India, Moscati created a compliance process in China, and implemented a process of segmentation of contracting work globally; dividing up work according to its complexity, geography and cost to serve. Moscati also has previous experience structuring and reshaping whole teams that fall under his remit to ensure they are in line with Accenture’s global guidelines. Moscati is aware of the differences in challenges between the different regions and business units he’s responsible for, stating ‘different geographies have different challenges’ and that in Latin America’s technology sector there is a need to keep law firms engaged to help them support cutting-edge digital and cloud operations. Receiving his legal qualifications from Universidade de São Paulo, The University of London and Fundação Getulio Vargas, Moscati is also a part of Accenture’s Brazilian board and of the Brazilian Ethics Committee.
