Who are you:

You are a recent graduate, apprentice, or someone with a few years' experience within a software development team. You are looking to develop your ability and knowledge to the next level. You have a passion for testing software and a desire to work within a team at the forefront of modern software development. You will be up to date with current software QA best practices. You should relish the chance to work with the latest cloud and serverless technologies and be ready for the challenge of learning the ins and outs of an existing application.  You are excited at the prospect of working in a small, agile development team.

Successful candidates can expect a competitive salary and profit-linked bonus. We also offer the opportunity to request flexible working hours and remote or home-based working days as well as a benefits package which includes a cycle-to-work scheme, free fruit and cereal bars in the office, and many opportunities for professional and personal growth.
