Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada CGI Full time
Position Description

Are you an experienced, passionate pioneer in requirements gathering, transformation, and technology? We are looking for a Business Analyst who is analytical, fast learner and enthusiastic about problem solving.

This is a client-facing role for someone who is detail oriented and understands the importance of technology as a tool to help improve business outcomes.

You know what it means to be part of a team and can manage client needs and expectations.


We offer the opportunity to work with Canada's largest Information Technology Outsourcing and Management Consulting Company with a true global presence in a fast-paced and energetic atmosphere where your personal and professional growth is accelerated by your desire and sense of commitment.

CGI's continuous growth is a testament to the confidence clients place in them and to the dedication of their professionals.

At CGI, all employees are called members because they feel a powerful sense of ownership and accountability. Members at CGI are building their own company - in 100+ offices worldwide.

CGI has the global resources, expertise, stability and dedicated professionals needed to achieve results for clients - and for members; that's why an astounding 90 percent of them are CGI shareholders.

As a member of CGI's Atlantic Business Unit Systems Integration and Consulting practice providing service to Public Sector customers, you will be joining an experienced and dynamic team of global IT professionals serving our clients across Canada and the world.


The public sector in the Atlantic provinces is re-inventing the way digital services and products are delivered to partner departments, and the citizens of the provinces they serve, and CGI is challenged with finding faster, more innovative ways of assisting the public sector in delivering on their respective mandates.

Public Sector is looking to leverage newer technologies to put customized services into the hands of citizens so their interactions and engagements with government is seamless, comfortable, and successful.

Public sector clients are turning to CGI to help them remodel their operations and assist in navigating through the massive digital transformational changes required to meet these ever-growing needs.


Insights you can act on


While technology is at the heart of our clients' digital transformation, we understand that people are at the heart of business success.


When you join CGI, you become a trusted advisor, collaborating with colleagues and clients to bring forward actionable insights that deliver meaningful and sustainable outcomes.

We call our employees "members" because they are CGI shareholders and owners and owners who enjoy working and growing together to build a company we are proud of.

This has been our Dream since 1976, and it has brought us to where we are today — one of the world's largest independent providers of IT and business consulting services.

At CGI, we recognize the richness that diversity brings. We strive to create a work culture where all belong and collaborate with clients in building more inclusive communities. As an equal-opportunity employer, we want to empower all our members to succeed and grow. If you require an accommodation at any point during the recruitment process, please let us know. We will be happy to assist.

Ready to become part of our success story? Join CGI — where your ideas and actions make a difference.
