Job Title: Software Tester (with a Bit of a Developer Inside)
Location: Cheltenham (Hybrid – 2–3 days in the office)
Type: Full-time, Permanent
Salary: Competitive, depending on experience
Here’s the Deal
We’re looking for a Software Tester who’s great at spotting issues, loves making things work better, and has a growing interest in coding.
You’ll be testing web applications, building automated tests, and generally helping us ship solid, reliable software. But if you’ve also dabbled in JavaScript or TypeScript — or want to — there’s plenty of room to get more involved in coding and automation.
This is a testing-first role (about 65%), but we’re keen to support someone who wants to level up their programming skills over time. We’re not expecting a full-blown developer — just a bit of curiosity and the willingness to learn.
You’ll be part of a supportive, relaxed team that works mostly from home, but meets up in our Cheltenham office 2 or 3 days a week, so we’re looking for someone who lives within around 45 minutes.
What You'll Be Doing
*
Writing and running automated tests (e.g. Cypress, Playwright, or similar).
*
Doing some manual testing for new features or complex areas.
*
Working with developers to figure out what needs testing and how to catch bugs early.
*
Writing basic test scripts or tooling in JavaScript or TypeScript — and building on that as you go.
*
Helping us make our test processes smarter, smoother, and faster.
What We're Looking For
*
Experience with automated testing and a good eye for detail.
*
Some basic programming knowledge (JavaScript or TypeScript is ideal), or a genuine interest in learning.
*
A collaborative mindset — someone who enjoys working with others to get things done.
*
Proactive, curious, and happy to ask questions or suggest improvements.
*
Able to come into the Cheltenham office 2–3 days a week.
Bonus Points For
*
Testing web apps or APIs (and using tools like Postman).
*
Git, CI/CD, or Agile experience.
*
Interest in growing into a more technical or development-heavy role.
What You’ll Get
*
The chance to grow your coding skills in a real-world environment.
*
A hybrid setup with plenty of flexibility and no micro-managing.
*
Supportive teammates who are open, easy to talk to, and happy to share knowledge.
*
Interesting projects and a say in how we build and test things.
*
A competitive salary, plus the usual benefits.
