Position Description
At CGI we’re empowering the next generation of Test Engineers to shape the future of quality assurance and digital delivery. You’ll be part of a team that drives innovation across complex transformation programmes designing, automating and optimising test solutions that deliver measurable value to our clients. Your work will strengthen the reliability and performance of mission‑critical systems directly contributing to business success. At CGI we’ll give you the freedom to take ownership of your ideas, the support to push boundaries and the platform to make a lasting impact across industries.
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 and a share scheme (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 we are proud to hold a Gold Award in recognition of our support of the Armed Forces Corporate Covenant.
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.
