• Manipulation, analysis and interpretation of multiple data sources to reach testing conclusions, sharing insights identified.

• A passion for continuous improvement to help drive efficiencies & promote effective ways of working, including the use of agile testing tools.

• Curiosity to understand and, where appropriate, challenge the existing end-to-end controls to mitigate financial / prudential / regulatory / operational risk.

• Provide insightful information and guidance to Stakeholders to help mitigate risk and improve the control environment.

• Strong team collaboration skills, drive to develop yourself and contribute towards team outputs / development.

• Adept in the evaluation of multiple data sources to reach control assessments and able to clearly communicate outcomes;

• Drive to be part of a diverse high performing team, focussed on your own and team development;

• A strong process improvement focus, ideally with experience in the use of automated tools to deliver assurance testing;

• Containerisation experience e.g. docker and how this can be used in a test automation context.

• Desirable to have CI/CD experience e.g. Jenkins.

About working for us

We offer excellent training, certification, career opportunities and a relaxed working environment. We're a lovely bunch of people.

We're growing and will continue to do so for years to come so you'll have good career development opportunities.

We promote equal opportunities, and welcome applications from employees from a diverse range of backgrounds. We will ensure that individuals with disabilities are provided reasonable accommodation to participate in the job application or interview process, to perform crucial job functions.
