Posted on Jun 7, 2026 by CV-Library
Nottingham, Nottinghamshire, United Kingdom
IT
Immediate Start
£30k - £42k Annual
Full-Time
Role: Software Tester (Manual + Automation)
Location: Nottingham
Working Model: Hybrid | 35-hour week
Salary: Up to £42k + 10% Bonus + 10% Pension ~£50k Package
Let’s cut through the noise…
This isn’t a “sit in the corner and run test scripts” kind of role.
This is for a tester who actually thinks. Someone who challenges, improves, and spots what others miss.
You’ll be working on a modern eCommerce / logistics platform used at serious scale—touching everything from web apps to APIs and backend systems. It’s complex, fast-moving, and genuinely interesting work.
What you’ll actually be doing
* Getting hands-on with manual + automated testing across web, mobile, desktop & APIs
* Designing smart test scenarios (not just ticking boxes)
* Building & maintaining automation frameworks (Playwright / Selenium / Selenide)
* Working closely with Devs & stakeholders to improve quality, not just report bugs
* Challenging how things are done and helping raise the bar across the team
Tech you’ll be around
* Playwright (TypeScript)
* Selenium / Selenide (Java)
* Postman (API testing)
* Git / Source control
* Azure DevOps (nice to have)
* SQL / Database testing
* Performance tools (JMeter or similar)
What they’re looking for
* ~3+ years in software testing
* Strong experience testing web apps + APIs
* Someone who understands how testing fits into the bigger picture
* A problem-solver, not just a test executor
* Comfortable in a fast-paced, collaborative environment
If you’ve touched automation and want to lean into it more, this is a great place to do it.
The package (this is where it stands out)
* Up to £42k salary
* 10% annual bonus (consistently paid)
* 10% employer pension contribution
* → Realistically a £50k+ package
The extras that actually matter
* 35-hour working week (rare these days)
* 1 full day per month protected for learning
* Free parking
* Showers onsite (ideal if you train before/after work)
* Regular team socials (good culture, not forced fun)
Why this role?
Because you’ll:
* Be trusted to think, not micromanaged
* Work on real-world, high-usage systems
* Have time to develop properly (not just squeezed in)
* Join a team that actually values quality engineering
If you’re a tester who wants to step up, get more technical, and have a voice, this is worth a conversation.
We welcome diverse applicants and are dedicated to treating all applicants with dignity and respect, regardless of background
