Automation is great - but some of us know that a sharp eye and a methodical mind will catch things no script ever will. We’re looking for a senior tester who takes genuine pride in breaking things properly, documents it beautifully, and occasionally lets a bit of code do the boring bits. If you’ve tested financial systems and you know the difference between a NAV calculation and a normal working day, we’d love to hear from you.
