About Us

We're a small but mighty Microsoft Partner that punches well above our weight. Our clients range from mid-market heroes to enterprise titans, and we deliver end-to-end solutions that make real impact. We're growing fast and need a Test Manager who's equal parts strategic and hands-on - someone who can own our testing capability across both manual and automation.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Define and own the test strategy across multiple projects, balancing manual and automation testing methods.
  • Lead, mentor, and grow a lean but high-performing QA team.
  • Implement and champion modern test tools (think Selenium, Cypress, Postman, Azure DevOps, etc.)
  • Work closely with devs, BAs, PMs, and clients to ensure quality from day one.
  • Manage UAT with clients - particularly important when dealing with complex enterprise ecosystems.
  • Contribute to project planning, risk assessments, and delivery timelines.
  • Maintain a laser focus on quality, without becoming a bottleneck to agile delivery.

What We're Looking For

Proven experience in a Test Manager or Senior Test Lead role

✅ Solid background working with major systems integrators (e.g. Atos, DXC, Capgemini)

Strong hybrid of manual and automation testing - you know when to script and when to just explore

✅ Hands-on knowledge of modern tools - Selenium, Cypress, Azure DevOps, Jira, Postman, etc.

✅ Enterprise-scale testing experience - complex systems, data-heavy platforms, integrations galore

✅ Outstanding stakeholder management and communication skills

✅ Comfortable working onsite in London 1-2 days per week

Nice to Have

  • ISTQB or similar certification
  • Microsoft platform experience (Dynamics 365, Azure, Power Platform)
  • Experience in regulated industries (e.g. finance, healthcare, government)

What You'll Get

  • Competitive base salary
  • Flexible hybrid working (but we're serious about those London days)
  • Chance to shape testing from the ground up in a high-growth business
