You'll have the opportunity to take ownership of strategic growth initiatives while being supported by a collaborative culture that empowers you to make a lasting impact.

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.

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.
This is a hybrid position.
Your future duties and responsibilities
In this role, you will drive strategic growth across CGI’s Aviation and Airlines portfolio by identifying, shaping and progressing high-value opportunities from initial engagement through to successful deal closure. You will work closely with account teams, consultants, delivery leaders and technical specialists to develop differentiated propositions that address client challenges and create measurable business value. Your commercial insight, strategic thinking and ability to influence senior stakeholders will be instrumental in building a strong pipeline and delivering sustainable revenue growth.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
