Geospatial Data Architect
Position Description
At CGI, we harness the transformative power of geospatial technology to drive industry change, improve public services, and deliver high-impact commercial solutions. As a Geospatial Data Architect, you'll take a lead role in designing innovative data-driven solutions that turn location intelligence into strategic value. Working at the intersection of architecture and insight, you'll collaborate with clients and cross-functional teams to shape scalable systems that manage and optimise geospatial data with precision and purpose.
CGI was recognised in the Sunday Times Best Places to Work List 2025 and has been named one of the Best Employers by the Financial Times. We offer a competitive salary, excellent pension, private healthcare, plus a share scheme (3.5% + 3.5% matching), making you a CGI Partner, not just an employee.
We're committed to creating a workplace that is inclusive and welcoming to all. We proudly support the Armed Forces and hold a Gold Award under the Armed Forces Corporate Covenant. When you join CGI, you become part of a collaborative, expert-led culture-where you can grow, contribute meaningfully, and take your career in any direction you choose.
This is a hybrid working pattern role and you may need to travel occasionally within the UK as needed - ideally you will be based within a commutable distance to one of the following CGI offices: London, Bristol, Birmingham, Reading, or Glasgow, but we will consider candidates from any UK location.
All applicants must hold or be prepared to undergo National Security Vetting (NSV) to Security Check (SC) level as a minimum.
