Job description
We’re on the lookout for a Software Tester to join the believe housing team on a permanent basis.
This is an exciting opportunity if you want to make a real difference. We believe in life without barriers. If you aren’t sure you meet 100% of the criteria but think you would be great in this role, don’t let that stop you; we would love to hear from you. We’re interested in your skills, knowledge and experience, as well as your personal values. We’re committed to supporting everyone here at believe housing and being an inclusive organisation
Although this role is advertised as full-time, we will consider part-time, job share and alternative working pattern proposals where possible.
