Trusted to see the whole picture



If you’re ahead of the game on cyber security, systems and operations risk we can secure your career ambitions.



Our Security Architects are trusted to work closely with a wide range of clients from all sectors on exciting projects with real-world purpose and impact. Whether you're a self-starter looking to test your talents, or want the opportunity to use your experience and skills, you'll find the challenges and support you need as part of one of the UK's largest cyber consultancies.



Our roles are only available if you hold or fulfil the criteria to obtain the highest level of UK Security Clearance.

Candidate profile

You’ll join a collaborative team of more than 230 members delivering 360° security services to clients across every domain that CGI operates in, from government, defence, healthcare and utilities to banking and financial services.



As a Security Architect your innovative solutions and support will secure business systems, protecting what is most valuable to our clients.



You’ll collaborate across enterprise architectures to produce end-to-end security designs, assisting on bids and proposals, as well as implementations and integrations. Liaising with stakeholders at all levels, you’ll help build the full landscape security view that underpins systems resilience and client confidence. We need senior members who are design authorities, and junior members to work alongside them, developing their skills and understanding.

Required qualifications to be successful in this role

We’re recruiting at all levels, so you’ll have between 1 to 30+ years of experience consulting on delivering and implementing secure system design - ideally as a technical security lead for senior roles. You’ll understand why security is at the centre of everything we do, and have the communication skills to persuade others, justifying secure architecture design to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.



We’ll also look for your experience and knowledge in:

● Security standards and frameworks (MoD and HMG experiences helpful)

● Cloud-based cyber security principles and architecture points

● Boundary controls, network segmentation and access control

● Identity and Access Management (including RBAC and A/PBAC, permissions management),

● Cryptographic techniques and implementations

● IT asset management and tracking

● Vulnerability Management and Patching

● SIEM principles, products and supporting logging infrastructure

● Containerisation and virtual machine security

● Delivering secure solutions against project expectations

● Strong awareness of and commitment to industry best practice

● Driving change in a complex environment
