Position Description
At CGI, you’ll help clients unlock greater value from Microsoft 365 and Power Platform, shaping digital solutions that improve how organisations work and make decisions. As a Senior Microsoft Power Platform Consultant, you’ll take ownership from early-stage advisory and solution design through to hands-on delivery, using Power Apps, Power BI and the wider platform to solve real business challenges. Every engagement will bring something different, giving you the freedom to bring fresh ideas, challenge established approaches and identify opportunities for greater impact. You’ll work closely with clients and CGI experts, sharing your knowledge, developing others and benefiting from a supportive community that enables you to broaden your expertise and influence future solutions.
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. This is a hybrid position, but typically attending client offices in Aberdeen one to two days per week, so you will need to live within reasonable commuting distance.
Your future duties and responsibilities
In this role, you will take ownership of Microsoft 365 and Power Platform engagements spanning advisory, solution shaping, technical design and hands-on implementation. You’ll work directly with clients to understand their requirements and desired outcomes, translating them into effective solutions while balancing technical considerations, risk, value and cost.
