About the Role

We are looking for an experienced Guidewire Test Lead to play a pivotal role in the successful delivery of complex Guidewire programmes across the insurance lifecycle.

Responsibilities

  • Lead end-to-end testing across Guidewire implementations, covering test strategy, planning, execution, governance, environments, defect management and distributed testing teams.
  • Provide delivery oversight across complex Guidewire programmes, managing risks, dependencies and milestones while supporting mobilisation, release readiness and post-deployment stabilisation.
  • Build effective relationships with business stakeholders, clients, Guidewire and third-party vendors, aligning testing and delivery priorities with business outcomes and providing clear, transparent communication.
  • Drive continuous improvement across testing processes, tooling, automation and ways of working, embedding a quality-focused culture while coaching and developing testing and delivery teams.

Requirements

  • Ability to lead end-to-end testing and quality assurance across complex Guidewire implementations, from strategy and planning through execution, defect management and release.
  • Ability to manage delivery risk, governance and quality across agile, hybrid or waterfall programmes, including mobilisation, go-live and service readiness.
  • Capability to lead and coordinate onshore, offshore and third-party teams, creating effective collaboration across complex insurance transformation programmes.
  • Excellent communication, stakeholder management and leadership skills, with the ability to build trusted relationships, resolve challenges and maintain focus on quality and business outcomes.

Skills

  • Practical knowledge of Guidewire ClaimCenter, PolicyCenter and BillingCenter, ideally including Guidewire Cloud/SaaS environments and associated test frameworks.
