About the job you're considering

We work closely with clients and partners to take full advantage of the opportunities of technology. We mobilize expert teams that create custom solutions from existing and emerging technology to deliver viable outcomes at speed. We call this 'Value in the making.' Part of the Capgemini Group, Sogeti makes business value through technology for organizations that need to implement innovation at speed and want a local partner with global scale. With a hands-on culture and close proximity to its clients, Sogeti is currently looking for a Automation Test Lead to join our Quality Engineering and Test Practice, ensuring alignment with business goals and driving impactful value creation for our clients.

Hybrid working: The places that you work from day to day will vary according to your role, your needs, and those of the business; it will be a blend of Company offices, client sites, and your home; noting that you will be unable to work at home 100% of the time.

If you are successfully offered this position, you will go through a series of pre-employment checks, including identity, nationality (single or dual) or immigration status, employment history going back 3 continuous years, and unspent criminal record check (known as Disclosure and Barring Service).

Your role

  • Design and implement effective automation test strategies and frameworks aligned with business goals.
  • Experience creating or adapting automation frameworks.
  • Lead the development and maintenance of automated test solutions using tools such as Selenium Playwright, WebDriver, Tricentis Tosca, or Keysight EggPlant.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams including developers, testers, analysts, and architects to ensure quality is embedded throughout the SDLC.
  • Guide teams in BDD practices using tools like Cucumber or SpecFlow.
  • Manage and version control test assets using GIT and integrate them into CI/CD pipelines (e.g., Jenkins, Azure DevOps).
  • Strong communication and stakeholder management skills.
  • Proven ability to lead teams and influence without authority.
  • Strategic mindset with the ability to align testing efforts with business objectives.
  • Engage with stakeholders at all levels to communicate test strategies, progress, and outcomes effectively.
  • Exposure to testing systems using AI technologies.
  • Contribute to the evolution of testing practices in Agile, DevOps, and Waterfall environments.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
