As a subject matter expert, you will create detailed test scenarios and test cases, execute component, integration, UAT and operational testing, and provide accurate effort estimates to support project delivery. You will monitor progress against agreed schedules, manage defects through to resolution, maintain robust testing documentation, and contribute to the development of regression test packs. This role requires strong attention to detail, excellent communication skills, and a proactive approach to identifying risks and supporting successful project outcomes. If you are passionate about quality, continuous improvement, and delivering reliable solutions, this is an excellent opportunity to make a significant impact within a global logistics leader.
