Position Description

At CGI, you'll drive strategic growth across Wales, building senior client relationships and turning opportunities into long term partnerships and measurable business outcomes. As Vice President, Client Growth, you'll shape and convert major opportunities, bring the breadth of CGI's capabilities to clients and lead teams to deliver sustainable growth. You'll have the autonomy to influence our commercial direction, the freedom to develop creative approaches to client needs, and the support of a collaborative community of experts.

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.

This is a hybrid position.

Your future duties and responsibilities

You'll lead business development across Wales, taking ownership of strategic client relationships, growth plans and major opportunities. Working with senior decision makers, you'll identify where CGI can add value, shape compelling propositions and guide opportunities from initial engagement through to contract award.

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.
