Test automation, test coordination, Salesforce or smart industry: we offer room to grow, share and lead.

Coordinate testing, and keep testing yourself

Want to coordinate testing, and keep testing yourself?

At Nekst IT, we’re always looking for skilled professionals with a smile. People who breathe quality, enjoy what they do, and believe that growth is something you create together.

What you’ll do

As a QA Coordinator / QA Manager, you’re a working foreman. You coordinate testing across teams at our clients, and you still like to get your hands dirty. Part of your week you plan and steer, the other part you test yourself.

In practice, this means:

  • Setting up and owning the test strategy and test plan, risk-based (TMap).
  • Planning and steering testers, onsite or offshore.
  • Testing yourself: writing test cases, running tests and finding the issues that matter.
  • Setting quality gates and reporting on progress and risks to product owners and management.
  • Coordinating acceptance tests with business users.
  • Coaching testers and teams, so quality becomes part of how they work.

Who you are

You keep the overview without losing touch with the work. You’d rather show how it’s done than only tell. New team, new client? You walk in with confidence, bring structure, and share your knowledge and a good dose of humor with your colleagues.

You bring

  • At least 5 years of experience in software testing, of which at least 2 coordinating or managing test work.
  • Hands-on testing experience you still enjoy using.
  • Knowledge of TMap and/or ISTQB.
  • Experience in agile teams (Scrum, SAFe).
  • A consultancy mindset: flexible, communicative and sharp.
  • You speak Dutch fluently.

Bonus points for

  • An understanding of test automation.
  • Experience with Salesforce or smart industry projects.

Why Nekst IT

At Nekst IT, you get the best of both worlds: the security of a steady employer and the variety of consultancy work. You’ll work with leading organizations across the Netherlands. Meanwhile, we invest in you, through training, certifications, coaching and the expertise of your colleagues.

We work hard, laugh even harder, and keep communication short and direct. Personal connection and growth are at the heart of everything we do.

Sounds good?

Great. Then let’s grab a coffee or tea soon and see if there’s a match. No formalities, just a good conversation with people who are as driven as you are.
