SGI connects organisations with experienced project and programme professionals who have delivered cloud migration, ERP, infrastructure, data and digital transformation programmes across multiple industries. 

Our specialist network includes 23,619 project and programme professionals, supported by access to a global technology community of more than 8 million candidates.

Our consultants recruit across the entire transformation ecosystem. Skills within the network span Business Analysis (15%), Data Analysis (14%) and Engineering (13%), allowing SGI to build complete delivery teams rather than isolated hires.

A cloud transformation programme, for example, often requires a Programme Director alongside Azure architects, DevOps engineers and data specialists. SGI recruits across each of those disciplines through its specialist technology practices. 

For larger transformation initiatives, organisations can also access SGI's staffing solutions, combining permanent, contract and project-based delivery models under a single engagement.
