Software QA Tester

So…why logistics and shipping? Pretty much everything you touch and everything you eat has a supply chain involved. It’s either delivered by on one of our lorries or sailed on one of our ships. Without supply chains like ours, the world would stand still, therefore logistics and shipping are so important, and this is where you come in…...

The Software Tester performs an essential role in the department as they ensure that all Ferry & Terminal systems are fit for purpose and working to specified business requirements.
