Community jobs in United States

At CGI, we empower the next generation of innovators to shape the future of technology and security. As part of #GenerationCGI, you’ll join a community of apprentices who are turning ambition into action and possibility into progress.

You will study towards a BSc (Hons) Digital and Technology Solutions degree via the Software Engineering professional pathway in partnership with a University/Learning Provider based in South East England. The rest of your time will be spent developing your career with us.

During the apprenticeship, you’ll work in roles related to your degree and therefore you’ll need to demonstrate an interest in these areas.

You can shape and develop your career throughout the course of the programme then continue with us after graduation. In addition to fully paid tuition fees, we’ll provide the course resources and materials required. You are able to access the same learning opportunities as those who follow the traditional route of direct entry into university.

CGI is a place where your ideas and solutions are not just welcomed, but essential. You’ll collaborate with colleagues and clients, combining your creativity with our global expertise to develop innovative solutions that solve real-world problems.

Your future duties and responsibilities

In this role, you’ll apply the skills learned from your apprenticeship expertise to projects that keep the UK and its global partners secure. You will:

• Design, develop, and test technical solutions for live projects.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to solve complex real-world challenges.
• Explore and apply emerging technologies in areas such as cyber, cloud, space, and mission systems.
• Support secure systems that underpin the UK’s national infrastructure.
• Innovate alongside other graduates, taking part in early careers initiatives that go beyond your day-to-day role.
• Every contribution you make will help deliver outcomes with lasting impact.

Locations

Software Engineering Degree Apprenticeships roles in the South East starting in Summer 2026 are available in our London and Leatherhead offices.

As CGI is a consultancy, you may be required to work in different locations, so flexibility and a willingness to travel are key.

Why Join Us?

At CGI, you’ll be part of a culture that celebrates diversity, inclusion, and collaboration, where your perspective is valued and your ideas contribute to meaningful outcomes.

Your journey starts with a structured Early Careers Induction Programme, giving you the foundations to succeed, along with 24/7 e-learning and opportunities to gain professional certifications that build your expertise.

CGI is an unconditionally inclusive workplace where you are respected, your voice is heard, and you can be yourself. We were recognised in the Sunday Times Best Places to Work List 2025 and named a UK ‘Best Employer’ by the Financial Times. We proudly hold a Gold Award in recognition of our support of the Armed Forces Corporate Covenant.

Along with a competitive salary and a £1000 joining bonus, you’ll enjoy benefits that support every stage of your journey. You’ll share in CGI’s success through our matched share scheme, have access to private healthcare, well-being programmes, and professional training, and build financial security with a competitive pension. Beyond the day job, you’ll connect with others through early careers networks, diversity groups, and social clubs that make your time at CGI both rewarding and enjoyable.

Requirements for this role

• A minimum of five 4-9 GCSEs (or equivalent grades A*-C on the old grading scale), including English and Maths.
• To have or be predicted to achieve at least 112 UCAS points across three A-Levels or equivalent BTECs at grade C or above (excluding General Studies) gained in the same academic year or a completed Advanced IT Apprenticeship.

• Your A-Levels (or equivalent qualifications) should include an IT related subject, unless you can show software programming or development ability through work experience or extra-curricular activities.
• Flexibility to travel and work on projects across the UK.

Many roles also require higher levels of National Security Vetting where applicants must typically have 5 to 10 years of continuous residency in the UK.

Our apprenticeships are designed for candidates with A-Levels (or equivalent e.g. BTEC etc) who do not yet have a degree in a related subject. If you are working towards a degree, or already have one, please see our Industrial Placement and Graduate Programmes.
