Job description
Senior Software Tester (mostly remote) required for a large retailer in North Lincolnshire.
This company have one of the largest IT centres in the UK, and with a 1-billion-pound turnover during/coming out of COVID, they are only set to grow, with their sights set globally!
This company have an amazing approach to career development, and genuinely value the testing function. You'll have a personalised career plan with clear opportunities to progress within the company, as well as an individual budget to be used for personal development and training courses (so you can constantly learn and grow!).
You'll be able to really get involved in the testing community, with attendance to events (like Ministry of Testing's TestBash) encouraged and paid for, as well as a pro membership to the online Ministry of Testing community. The company also host exclusive events with speakers from across the testing and tech community for you.
You'll be joining a large team of Testers, which is fairly junior heavy (due to the company's impressive graduate scheme). It would be ideal if you are interested in mentoring and developing your more junior colleagues, however this is not something that is essential to the role (or something you need to do if it's not quite for you).
Day-to-day you will be carrying out manual testing across mobile, web and ERP systems, but the company are also heavily investing into interesting technology like virtual reality, so there is lots of different projects for you to get stuck into (you won't be bored here!).
You'll have most of the following skills/experience:
*Agile experience
*API testing
*Mobile, web and tablet software testing
*SQL/MySQL
*Mentoring and coaching less senior Testers
*Creating test documentation
*Creating and maintaining test scripts
*ISTQB certification would be a bonus!
*Some automation testing experience would be a bonus!
Salary-wise, the company can offer around £35,000 - £40,000 for this role. Along with the career development benefits above, they also offer a quarterly bonus; Pluralsight subscription; an employee assistance programme; discounted eyecare and products; discounted company products; free onsite gym; subsidised meals in their two(!) onsite restaurants and free parking.
This role is mostly remote, but you will need to be able to travel to their North Lincolnshire office twice every two weeks (a Monday and a Friday on the second week).
If this role sounds of interest, please do apply and/or reach out to Erin at Cathcart Associates.
