SCOTT WRIGHT

CANADIAN IT giant CGI has appointed Lindsay McGranaghan to head its operation in Scotland.

The appointment comes as the company prepares to move its Glasgow staff to a new office in the city centre, which will become its Scottish headquarters. The new base will eventually house more than 400 members of staff.

At 36, Ms McGranaghan, who has worked for CGI since 2012, is one of the youngest senior leaders in the company’s history. In her new role she will lead its 500-strong Scottish team, based in Glasgow, Edinburgh, Aberdeen and the Scottish Borders.
