Senior Front-End Engineer (Angular)
Position Description
At CGI, we work alongside our UK Government clients to deliver modern digital services that improve access to justice and support critical public sector transformation. As an Senior Front-End Engineer, you'll help design, build, and enhance scalable cloud-based applications that underpin key public services across England and Wales. Working within collaborative Agile teams, you'll contribute to the development of secure, high-performing digital platforms while influencing technical direction, improving engineering practices, and supporting continuous innovation. This is an opportunity to work on meaningful projects that deliver real societal impact while growing your expertise in a supportive and forward-thinking environment.
CGI was recognised in the Sunday Times Best Places to Work List 2025 and has been named a UK 'Best Employer' by the Financial Times. We offer a competitive salary, excellent pension, private healthcare, plus a share scheme (3.5% + 3.5% matching) which makes you a CGI Partner not just an employee. We are committed to inclusivity, building a genuinely diverse community of tech talent and inspiring everyone to pursue careers in our sector, including our Armed Forces, and are proud to hold a Gold Award in recognition of our support of the Armed Forces Corporate Covenant. Join us and you'll be part of an open, friendly community of experts. We'll train and support you in taking your career wherever you want it to go.
Due to the secure nature of the programme, you will need to hold UK Security Clearance or be eligible to go through this clearance. Our teams operate within a flexible hybrid working model, however on-site requirements vary by project, so the ability to travel as required to meet client needs is essential.
