We've been helping our members save for their future and buy their own home since 1875. Join us and you'll play a big role in helping us to put home ownership within reach of more people, generation after generation. It's a purpose that drives everything we do. And you can play your part too - as Senior UAT Test Lead, you'll bring a strong business lens to quality across our Core Banking Transformation programme, enabling safe, evidence-based go-live decisions.
Job Responsibility:
Define the UAT strategy, set clear entry and exit criteria, and own the UAT operating model.
Lead a team of direct reports and a wider test community (25+ matrix/indirect testers) comprising Society colleagues and third-party consultants, creating the conditions for disciplined execution, robust governance, transparent reporting, and objective assessments of readiness and risk.
Lead robust defect triage and prioritisation, and provide clear, decision-grade reporting on readiness, residual risk and recommended actions to senior stakeholders in the Society.
Requirements:
Senior leadership of UAT for large-scale, complex transformation programmes (ideally within a regulated environment).
Strong understanding of business operations and end-to-end processes (not solely technology delivery).
Experience producing formal UAT exit positions that support executive, evidence-based go-live decisions.
Proven ability to lead, motivate and coordinate large groups of business testers and SMEs, while operating at pace and under pressure.
Excellent senior stakeholder management and communication skills, with the confidence to provide constructive challenge when required.
