UAT Lead

£700 Inside

Hybrid, Warwick (2 days per week)

We are looking for an experienced UAT Test Lead to support a business-critical transformation programme. This is not a purely test execution role. We need someone who is comfortable being hands-on with UAT delivery, while also helping to improve the maturity, governance and consistency of how UAT operates across the programme.

You will work closely with business SMEs, delivery teams and wider stakeholders to ensure solutions are thoroughly validated against business requirements and are ready for release.

Key Responsibilities

• Translate business requirements and user stories into clear UAT scenarios, test scripts and test data.
• Lead and execute UAT, working closely with business SMEs undertaking testing.
• Manage test evidence, defect tracking, retesting and regression testing throughout the UAT lifecycle.
• Improve traceability across requirements, user stories, test cases, defects and business acceptance.
• Establish stronger UAT readiness, entry and exit criteria, and formal sign-off processes.
• Provide clear reporting on test progress, defects, risks, blockers and overall release readiness.
• Improve the wider UAT approach, including governance, templates, tooling and ways of working.
• Coach and support internal colleagues, helping to build a sustainable in-house UAT capability.

What We’re Looking For

• Strong hands-on experience delivering UAT within complex transformation programmes.
• Experience leading or coordinating UAT across multiple business and technology stakeholders.
• Strong understanding of UAT governance, defect management, test evidence, traceability and sign-off.
• Experience establishing or improving UAT processes, frameworks and ways of working.
• Confident working directly with business SMEs and helping non-testing stakeholders participate effectively in UAT.
• Strong stakeholder management and communication skills, with the ability to provide clear reporting around quality, risks and readiness.
