As our Business Development Lead for NHS/Healthcare, you will play a critical role in shaping growth opportunities that deliver tangible outcomes for our clients and the communities they serve. Working at the intersection of technology and healthcare, you'll help expand CGI's impact across the sector, building relationships that inspire progress and enable lasting transformation. In this dynamic role, you'll take ownership of growth initiatives, apply creativity to solve real-world challenges, and be supported by a collaborative network that empowers you to make a meaningful difference.

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.

Acting as a trusted advisor, you'll influence senior stakeholders, foster collaboration, and translate strategic vision into meaningful outcomes.

You'll work closely with CGI's healthcare, alliance, and subject matter expert teams to craft winning strategies and deliver measurable business results. Empowered by CGI's culture of ownership and innovation, you'll play a pivotal role in helping clients modernise systems, improve patient outcomes, and achieve their long-term goals.
