QA Lead / Manual Testing / Automation Testing / Testing Processes / Permanent / Remote / West Midlands / £40,000 - £50,000
The Role
We’re looking for a QA Lead to take full ownership of Quality Assurance across the business. This is the first dedicated QA hire, offering a genuine opportunity to design, implement and lead how QA is done from the ground up in a small business.
Right now, quality is a shared responsibility across engineering and product, which has allowed the team to move in an agile way. The next step is bringing in a dedicated QA Lead to introduce structure, consistency and scalable practices - giving you a genuine opportunity to shape how quality is embedded across the business.
What You’ll Be Doing
* Owning QA end-to-end across product and project delivery
* Defining and implementing QA processes and standards
* Balancing QA efforts between:
o Core product development
o Ad hoc / consultancy-style project work
* Writing and maintaining clear test scripts and test cases
* Performing manual and regression testing
* Introducing and implementing automated testing where appropriate
* Working closely with developers, product and operations to embed quality into delivery
* Identifying gaps, risks and opportunities for improvement in existing workflows
Experience & Skills Required
Essential:
* Proven experience in a QA or QA Lead role
* Strong manual testing background
* Experience writing test scripts and executing regression testing
* Comfortable working without existing QA frameworks or standards
* Ability to take ownership and make decisions in ambiguous environments
