The Test Manager will lead a small test team, which you will be tasked with growing (currently recruiting for 3 testers), and will be responsible for the testing strategy framework, and devising test plans for the solutions that the business delivers to its clients. The role will involve working with technical teams (Product Managers, Program Manager, Development Managers and Support Managers) in order to deliver test activities in line with the deadlines for the overall product delivery lifecycle.
