This is a fantastic opportunity to establish a new capability within our Digital Products team. You will define standards and processes as well as help us to understand best practice and innovative approaches to quality, which ensure our customers have a great experience using our digital products every time. You will work with teams across our business to improve UAT, providing them with foundational tools and concepts so they are able to provide useful, thorough testing to an appropriate level. This is a strategic role which may have an element of hands on QA initially. At apetito, we are committed to providing high-quality products and services to our customers.
