Engineering Manager (QA) - £100,000 - £105,000 | Bonus & bens | Hybrid (2-3 days a week in West London)

Brand new live role for a QA-focused Engineering Manager to join a major transformation programme inside a FTSE 250 business. Retail / ecom experience ideal!

You won't be line managing teams or writing test scripts, this is all about governance, supplier oversight, and stakeholder management at scale. Think: holding large SIs accountable, embedding quality standards, and driving delivery excellence across multiple streams of work.

This is perfect for anyone who has worked both sides of the fence, know how to challenge third parties constructively, and have a strong grounding in QA practices.

What's exciting about it?

• You'll be the quality advocate across a massive digital transformation
• No people management; focus entirely on supplier governance, QA strategy, and delivery assurance
• Big-name programme with lots of visibility and impact
• You'll join a team that's re-shaping how technology is delivered across the business, and QA is central to that

What they're looking for:

• Strong QA/engineering background, ideally with experience of automation, TDD/BDD, and modern SDLCs
• Comfortable overseeing third-party delivery partners and navigating complex internal stakeholder groups
• A calm, credible presence who can influence at all levels without needing to shout
• Background in retail, ecommerce or high-scale digital delivery a bonus
• Previous consultancy experience or hybrid backgrounds especially welcome

If you're looking for a hands-off-technical, high-impact QA leadership role without people management apply now.
