I'm offering
I am a seasoned test asset with over 14 years experience in the Testing arena. I have worked my way up from Test Analyst (Systems and UAT)
through to Test Management, across multiple platforms and industries as well as Functional changes & Data Migration projects.
Prior to this, I have experience as a Financial Advisor with a wealth of knowledge in the banking industry and understand how to work with
customers and give consideration to business needs and processes which helps significantly when understanding the correct requirements to be
delivered. My military background enables me to deal with pressure and prioritise work without losing traction on the required delivery or
causing further confusion when a problem occurs. As an individual I am a logical and methodical person, in planning and implementation, which
helps to give clarity to the method and execution of the required end solution and its successful delivery.
