Christchurch, New Zealand Farmlands Co-Operative Society Full time

Wanted: Chaos Coordinator aka Test Lead
We're searching for a brave soul to lead our Quality Assurance crusade. Someone who can turn "it's not a bug, it's a feature" into "okay fine, we'll fix it."
Your Daily Adventures Will Include

Herding cats (we mean test analysts) towards testing excellence.
Playing "Bug Detective" with the enthusiasm of Sherlock Holmes.
Translating developer-speak ("it works on my machine") into human language.
Leading a team of fellow bug enthusiasts who think breaking things is fun.

You Must Have

Leadership skills so the team don't quit when you say "let's regression test everything."
Experience in rocket surgery, or the industry best practice for testing processes.
The patience of a saint dealing with last-minute feature requests.
Jedi-level skills in predicting where users will click the wrong thing.
A sense of humour (trust us, you'll need it).
A proven track record of surviving multiple production releases.

About the benefits
You'll be rewarded with:

Sick leave from Day 1.
Paid birthday leave.
Access to training through our online library, The Greenhouse.
Staff discounts at Farmlands Retail Stores.
Exclusive Farmlands shareholding offer providing access to a vast array of discounts with our Card Partners.
Additional support for parents - 10 weeks of fully paid parental leave for primary carers and 2 weeks' paid partner's leave.

About us
At Farmlands - Te Whenua Taroa, our purpose is to enable improved profitability and productivity for NZ farmers and growers, and our vision is to be the 'go-to' for everyone connected to our land. This is what gets us out of bed in the morning and keeps us going day in and day out.
As New Zealand's largest farming co-operative, we have an annual turnover of more than $2.3 billion, with over 1200 staff in over 80 locations from Cape Reinga to Bluff. In addition to our strong core retail business, we have a well-established shareholder card network with operations in feed production, nutrition, ecommerce, fuel, distribution, agronomy, to name a few.
Joining our team gives you the chance to contribute to a Kiwi-owned brand. We offer autonomy in a collaborative fast-paced environment where we truly value 'Minds Open', 'Be-ing You', and 'See-ing it Through'.
How to apply
Apply online with your CV and cover letter and we'll do the rest. We'd love to hear from you and know you'll most definitely grow your career - and us - at Farmlands.
Applicants must have the legal right to work in New Zealand.
Please note that the successful candidate will have to go through pre-employment checks before starting with us at Farmlands. These will include two references from your two most recent managers, a Ministry of Justice Check, proof of your right to work in New Zealand, a driver's licence check and an ACC background check. For certain roles a drug and alcohol test, credit check and AML check may be required.
