  • Supporting quarterly Oracle updates, regression testing, and ongoing enhancements, * Career Growth & Mentorship - Benefit from structured progression through our Strength in Balance and leadership programmes, supported by quarterly Pathways career development reviews
  • Continuous Learning - Access a significant training budget to support certifications and ongoing professional development
  • Recognition & Rewards - Celebrate success through our Annual Excellence Awards, Call-Out recognition platform, and quarterly profit share
  • Work That Matters - Shape testing strategy and influence delivery across major ERP transformation programmes
  • High-Profile Clients - Work with leading organisations, including the Bank of England and Birmingham City Council
  • Flexible Working - Hybrid model enabling remote delivery with occasional travel to client or hub locations
  • Wellbeing & Life Events Support - Enhanced maternity, paternity, and Moments that Matter policies to support you at key life stages
  • Purpose-Driven Culture - Get involved in ESG, CSR, and DEI initiatives, with opportunities to give back through volunteering and community engagement
