Job description

Disconnection breaks compliance.

Across the UK, organisations are still managing compliance, facilities, safety, supply chains and training through separate systems, fragmented data and siloed teams. That creates gaps. Gaps create risk. And risk, left unmanaged, can have serious consequences.

Vantify was built to change that.

We bring software, expert services and intelligence together in one connected ecosystem, giving organisations a single vant point across everything that matters. Our mission is simple: to set the standard in connected compliance.

That makes Vantify an exciting place to work. We are building a business that helps clients see more clearly, act more confidently and manage risk before it becomes a problem. Whether you work in sales, marketing, technology, consultancy, customer success, service delivery or operations, you are part of the same ambition: helping organisations move from disconnected compliance to one connected way of working.

We are looking for people who want to make things better. People who bring judgement, energy and ownership. People who care about doing work properly, supporting clients well and building something with lasting value.

Compliance. Connected.

About The Role

Reporting to the Divisional Head of Software Quality, you will play a key role in designing, implementing and maintaining mobile and web test automation frameworks to deliver secure reliable products.

In this role, as well as enhancing existing automation solutions you will develop automated test solutions across web and mobile apps from scratch, working closely with development and product teams to embed quality throughout the software delivery lifecycle. The ideal candidate will have strong hands‑on experience in automated testing, CI/CD integration of generated automated tests, and quality engineering practices across multiple platforms.

What You'll Be Getting Up To

• Lead the design and maintenance of mobile automation tests to ensure our iOS and Android apps are reliable and high quality.
• Support the design and maintenance of web automation tests.
• Peer code reviews.
• Develop and execute automation test strategies aligned with business and technical requirements.
• Collaboration with cross-functional teams including development, DevOps, and product owners to ensure quality is embedded from design to delivery.
• Manage test automation metrics and report test results.
• Contribute to performance, load, and reliability testing where required.
• Leading the delivery of automated testing across multiple concurrent products.
• Driving continuous improvement by exploring and applying new automation tools and techniques.
• Coaching and mentoring colleagues to build confidence and capability in automation testing.
• Occasional out of hours support as and when required

What We're Looking For

The ideal candidate for this role will demonstrate behaviours that reflect our core values. Our colleagues are approachable and optimistic, focusing on solutions. We listen to understand client needs, delivering expert guidance and a high-quality service. We foster collaboration by sharing knowledge openly and supporting others to thrive by sharing well-considered feedback. We continuously strive for improvement by being open to challenge, being curious and focusing on innovation.

In order to excel in this role you need...

• 3+ years' experience in web and mobile test automation, with strong hands‑on expertise in tools such as Playwright and Selenium WebDriver.

• Experience working in Agile/Scrum environments, with a proactive approach to identifying risks and improving test coverage.
• Strong analytical and problem‑solving skills, with attention to detail.
• Confident communicator, able to collaborate effectively across technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Experience coaching or supporting others in developing automation capabilities.
• Self‑motivated team player who can prioritise workload, manage stakeholder expectations, and drive continuous improvement.
• Working knowledge of API testing (e.g. Postman) and modern testing frameworks.

Nice To Have

• Experience with performance testing tools (e.g. JMeter) and security testing (OWASP).
• Familiarity with .NET testing frameworks (xUnit, NUnit).
• Exposure to cloud platforms (Azure, GCP) and tools such as Jira and Azure DevOps.
