- Test Management experience
- Strong test strategy and planning expertise
- Experience managing structured testing across complex infrastructure

Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
Experience within broadcast/media infrastructure, data-centre migration, network infrastructure or systems integration environments is particularly relevant.
Experience with Xray for Jira and Jira is highly desirable. Useful technical exposure can include IP networking, MCR environments, SMPTE 2110, Nevion VideoIPath/iPath, TAG Multiviewer, Cisco, OTN, fibre connectivity and carrier circuits.
ISTQB, PMP or equivalent certifications are preferred.
