Help shape software that supports the democratic process across the UK. As a Graduate Software Test Analyst, you’ll build valuable technical skills while helping deliver reliable, user-friendly products that people and public services depend on.
The Company
You’ll join an established technology business developing specialist software for organisations delivering essential public services. Its products help local authorities manage important, complex processes, with a focus on practical innovation, dependable service, and customer needs. With colleagues working across several countries, the business brings together different perspectives and encourages open collaboration. It is committed to an inclusive workplace where people are respected and can succeed on their merits.
The Role
As a Graduate QA Engineer, you’ll learn how software is analysed, tested, and delivered throughout the development lifecycle. Working alongside developers, product specialists, and support teams, you’ll contribute to the quality of electoral software used by local authorities.
You’ll have the opportunity to develop your testing, analytical, and technical abilities, including practical experience using SQL. You’ll also take part in discussions about requirements, design, and product improvements, rather than focusing on testing alone. As your knowledge grows, you could take on greater ownership or explore specialist progression routes, subject to performance and business needs.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Learn the product suite, customer needs and the electoral services domain.
- Create and maintain test plans, test cases and quality documentation.
- Carry out functional, usability, integration and end-to-end software testing.
- Use SQL to investigate data and prepare test data where required.
- Investigate defects, assess risks and support continuous quality improvements.
- Work with colleagues on design reviews, releases and product feedback.
Benefits and Perks
The business recognises that flexibility can support a healthier work-life balance and give people greater ownership of how they work. You’ll be part of a flexible environment that is open to discussing working patterns to suit individual needs.
- £32,000 starting salary.
- Fully remote working from anywhere in the UK, with travel as required.
- Flexible working arrangements, with options that may include adjusted hours, part-time working or a nine-day fortnight.
Requirements
- A degree in Computer Science or a STEM subject, such as Maths, Physics or Engineering.
- A genuine interest in software, technology, and delivering a positive customer experience.
- Logical problem-solving skills, clear communication and a collaborative approach.
- An interest in software testing, quality assurance, SQL, or user-centred design.
