Security and Development Test Manager
We are seeking a Security and Development Test Manager to lead the planning, coordination and delivery of security-focused testing across software, systems and development lifecycles. The successful candidate will ensure that products and services are assessed against robust security, quality and performance standards, while helping development teams identify and address risks early. This role will work closely with engineering, architecture, project management and operational teams to embed secure testing practices throughout the delivery process.
Responsibilities will include developing and maintaining test strategies, plans and schedules; managing functional, integration, regression, performance and security testing activities; and overseeing the use of appropriate testing tools, environments and methodologies. You will coordinate penetration testing, vulnerability assessments, secure code reviews and remediation verification, ensuring findings are documented, prioritised and tracked through to resolution. The role will also involve managing internal and external test resources, monitoring progress against milestones, producing clear reports for technical and senior stakeholders, and contributing to continuous improvement of development and assurance processes.
Applicants should have significant experience managing software development testing, quality assurance or security testing within complex technical environments. A strong understanding of secure development lifecycles, threat modelling, vulnerability management, test automation and common security standards is essential. Experience working with Agile or similar delivery frameworks, CI/CD pipelines and modern development technologies would be highly beneficial. You will be an organised and confident communicator, able to challenge constructively, manage competing priorities and explain technical risks to both specialist and non-specialist audiences. Relevant professional qualifications in software testing, cyber security, quality management or project delivery are desirable, together with a proven record of leading teams and delivering reliable outcomes in a controlled and collaborative environment.
