Test Manager - £850 to £900 inside - Edinburgh (2 days per week, expenses paid)

Please note: This is a contract role with expenses paid.

La Fosse has partnered with a consulting organisation supporting a UK Payroll transformation programme that requires an experienced Test Manager to take ownership of the testing function. The programme currently needs stronger leadership around test strategy, governance and stakeholder engagement, with a particular focus on bringing business and technology teams together.

We're looking for someone with proven experience delivering Payroll-related programmes, ideally within UK Payroll environments, who can confidently manage stakeholders, drive accountability and ensure testing is aligned to programme objectives. Experience with SAP and Tricentis/Tosca would be advantageous but is not essential.

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.
