Job description

Testing & Quality Assurance Sales Manager

Location: London (Hybrid) | Type: Full-time | Package: Competitive base + commission/bonus

Our specialist change and transformation consultancy client is hiring a Testing & Quality Assurance Sales Manager to drive growth across its Testing & Quality Assurance practice. This is a strong opportunity for a consultative seller with experience winning testing-led work in enterprise environments—especially within Financial Services and other complex, regulated sectors. The firm offers services across Change Execution, Managed Services/Change Partner, Joint Venture (risk/reward), and Advisory & Assurance, underpinned by delivery capability in PMO, testing, and business/data analysis.


About the opportunity:

You’ll be responsible for building pipeline, shaping testing propositions, and converting opportunities across services such as:

  • Functional Testing
  • Regression Testing
  • Performance Testing
  • Test Automation
  • Multi-platform Testing
  • Security Testing
  • Quality Capability Review / Recovery
  • Quality Assurance Delivery


What you’ll be doing:

  • Own the full sales cycle: prospecting → discovery → solution shaping → proposal → close
  • Build a strong pipeline for testing and QA consulting / managed services opportunities
  • Engage senior stakeholders (Technology, Change, QA, Delivery, Ops, Risk) to position outcomes-led solutions
  • Shape client propositions across project-based testing support, managed testing services, QA assurance and quality capability improvement, risk/reward and outcome-based delivery models
  • Work closely with delivery leaders and SMEs to develop compelling proposals, SOWs, and commercials
  • Convert testing demand into broader transformation opportunities (PMO, data/BA, change delivery)
  • Maintain CRM discipline, forecasting accuracy, and clear reporting on pipeline performance
  • Build long-term client relationships, renewals, and account expansion plans


What our client is looking for:

  • Proven B2B sales experience in consulting / professional services, ideally focused on:
  • Testing / QA services
  • Quality engineering
  • Transformation delivery
  • Managed services
  • Strong track record winning work in enterprise and/or regulated environments (Financial Services highly relevant)
  • Confident leading discovery and converting client pain points into structured, credible solutions
  • Commercially strong: able to navigate SOWs, frameworks, rate cards, retainers, and managed service agreements
  • Comfortable engaging senior stakeholders across complex buying groups
  • High-energy, self-starting, relationship-led sales style with excellent follow-through
  • Strong written communication (proposals, executive summaries, solution positioning)


Nice to have:

  • Existing network across Banking, Insurance, Payments, or Capital Markets
  • Experience selling testing automation, performance testing, or security testing
  • Exposure to outcome-based / risk-reward commercial models
  • Understanding of change delivery disciplines (PMO, programme delivery, BA, governance)


Why this role:

  • Strong consulting proposition with clear testing and QA depth, not just generic transformation messaging
  • Opportunity to sell into meaningful, complex programmes (including financial services change and technology delivery)
  • Broader platform proposition across PMO, testing, business/data analysis, advisory and assurance—creating real cross-sell potential
  • Hybrid London setup and a high-autonomy growth role
