Jennifer Estes’ biggest recent achievement is the moment her client called her team family.
“It’s recognition of what I see every day – highly talented, highly motivated people who are committed to the hard work of bringing bold new ideas to solve complex problems for our clients,” she said.
She also finds serving U.S. space defense agencies a real honor. Protecting space is vital to national security and global stability.
“This is why we are obsessed with bringing the best of Accenture Federal Services to serve our clients,” Estes said.
In the last year, Estes and her team tripled the number of space projects, published thought leadership and shared offerings with dozens of space clients.
“Jennifer is driven by a passion to explore new frontiers and establish Accenture Federal Services’ footprint with an agency poised for increased importance under the new administration and the next generation of warfighters,” said Maggie Pollard, Department of Air Force client account lead at Accenture Federal Services. “Jennifer’s tireless efforts and deep understanding of the client’s mission and needs are truly shaping the future of our partnership with the Space Force.”
