Full Job Description

About the Opportunity

Are you ready to step into a role where you don’t just test — you shape how testing is done?

We are looking for a Test Lead (Player-Coach) to build and embed a practical, high-impact testing capability within our PMO, while staying actively involved in delivery.

This role is perfect for someone who enjoys the balance of hands-on testing, leading by example, and improving how quality is delivered across the SDLC in a fast-paced, integrated environment.

You will be at the centre of driving quality, structure, and consistency across multiple teams, systems, and vendors.

What You’ll Be Doing

Design and implement a fit-for-purpose testing framework (standards, templates, governance)
Lead and execute testing across key initiatives (test design, execution, defect management, UAT support)
Coordinate testing across internal teams and external vendors
Partner with PMs, BAs, Developers, and Vendors to drive quality across the SDLC
Support production readiness, go-live validation, and post-release monitoring improvements
Deliver clear, concise reporting on risks, progress, and release readiness
Track quality metrics and continuously improve testing practices
Must-Have Experience & Skills

We are looking for a strong hands-on tester with leadership potential or experience.

You should bring:

3–6 years’ experience in Software Testing / QA
Solid hands-on experience in:
- Functional Testing
- System Integration Testing (SIT)
- User Acceptance Testing (UAT)
- Test Case Design & Execution
- Defect Logging & Tracking
Experience in integrated or multi-system environments
Exposure to APIs, system integrations, and data validation
Strong understanding of the SDLC and testing lifecycle
Experience improving or building testing frameworks, standards, or processes
Ability to independently own testing for projects or workstreams
Experience working with developers, business analysts, and vendors
Strong documentation skills with exceptional attention to detail
A structured, proactive mindset focused on continuous improvement and quality

Why This Role Stands Out

This is more than a testing job — it’s a chance to:

Shape and mature a testing capability from the ground up
Stay close to delivery while influencing how quality is embedded across teams
Work in a complex, integrated environment where your impact is visible
Grow into a stronger Test Lead / Quality leader role

If This Sounds Like You…

You care about quality. You think beyond execution. You enjoy improving how things are done — not just doing them.

Then we’d love to hear from you.

We are committed to providing equal opportunities to all applicants from diverse backgrounds.

Thank you for choosing us as your employer of choice. Please note that only suitably qualified candidates will be considered. If you do not hear from us within 14 working days, please regard your application as unsuccessful. We wish you well in your future endeavours.

Apply now and take your career to the next level!
