Offer description

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. Interested? Drop us your CV and a quick note about what you've worked on and what you're curious to learn next — we’re excited to hear from you
