Business Analyst – Entry Level

Position Description
Are you driven to understand how organizations operate and inspired to help them solve meaningful challenges with thoughtful, well‑designed solutions? Do you enjoy analyzing processes, collaborating with teams, and using data and AI‑enabled tools to uncover insights and drive improvement?

If so, CGI offers a place where you can grow your career, build your skills, and make a real impact from day one.

As an Entry Level Business Analyst, you’ll work with cross functional teams to translate business needs into clear, actionable requirements. You’ll gain hands on experience with modern analysis methods, data tools, and technology enabled workflows, building a strong foundation in consulting skills such as requirements development, solution design, and responsible AI practices.

Fall Application Period: August 24, 2026 - October 2, 2026

Your future duties and responsibilities
How You’ll Make an Impact
• Develop a strong understanding of your client’s industry, organization, customers, and business objectives.
• Build trusted relationships with clients and teammates by asking thoughtful questions, actively listening, and clarifying business needs.
• Analyze business processes, user requirements, and data to identify insights, pain points, and improvement opportunities.
• Use foundational data skills (SQL basics, data exploration, statistical literacy, and visualization tools such as Power BI, Tableau, Excel) to support analysis.
• Communicate findings and recommendations clearly, translating technical concepts into language that cross-functional audiences can understand.
• Convert business needs into functional requirements, user stories, workflows, acceptance criteria, and test support materials.
• Leverage modern and AI‑enabled workplace tools to organize information, summarize findings, draft documentation, identify patterns, and streamline analysis.
• Apply responsible AI practices by considering privacy, security, data quality, transparency, and appropriate human oversight when using AI-enabled tools.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure solutions meet business needs and deliver strong user experiences.
• Support testing, usability reviews, documentation, training materials, and client deliverables throughout the project lifecycle.

Required qualifications to be successful in this role
What You’ll Bring
• Bachelor’s degree from an accredited college or university.
• Authorization to work in the United States on a permanent basis without current or future employer sponsorship. Certain positions may also require U.S. Citizenship and/or the ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. government security clearance based on client or government requirements.
• Curiosity, professionalism, and a strong desire for continuous learning.
• Strong analytical and problem solving skills, with comfort navigating ambiguity and complex information.
• Clear written and verbal communication skills with the ability to simplify and explain complex ideas.
• Collaborative mindset and ability to work effectively with cross functional teams.
• Exposure to business analysis, AI tools, data analysis, cloud technologies, cybersecurity concepts, or software development through coursework, internships, research, or personal projects is preferred but not required.
• Interest in learning and responsibly using AI-enabled tools, automation platforms, and modern productivity technologies to enhance business analysis.
