Test Lead

Description

Test & QA Lead 6-Month Contract (Outside ir35) Retail Brand London 2-3 days per week

Testing on this programme is delivered by capable third-party partners. What's missing is the person who owns it. That means someone who knows whether the end-to-end order flow is genuinely covered, who can tell the business plainly what's ready and what isn't, and who will run the tests themselves when that's what the moment needs. If you've led testing in larger teams and want a role where your judgement shapes how quality works, read on.
