Overview

We are looking for two experienced Programme Test Managers to support a major transformation programme with a financial services company

The client is undertaking significant changes to its data platform and operating model, including a major change to the way its staff are remunerated, creating a substantial programme of change across data, technology and finance.

The Roles

One Test Manager will be specifically aligned to the Partner Remuneration transformation.

You will take ownership of the overall testing strategy and delivery, ensuring that the testing function is fully established and that all testing activities are coordinated effectively through to a successful go-live.

The second Test Manager will operate at a broader programme level rather than being dedicated to one specific project.

This role will work across multiple Test Managers and workstreams, providing oversight of testing activity, releases and overall testing governance.

You should have:

• You need to have extensive experience with non-functional and performance testing
• Strong experience leading testing functions within large-scale transformation programmes.
• Proven experience developing and implementing Test Strategies.
• Experience managing testing through to go-live.
• Strong understanding of testing governance, risk and assurance.
• Experience working within complex technology and data environments.
• Excellent communication and organisational skills.
• Experience with Jira or similar tools.
• A pragmatic, delivery-focused approach with the ability to provide appropriate challenge and assurance.
• Strong stakeholder management skills, including at programme and senior management level.
