With an annual budget upwards of £1 billion, the HSCIC is responsible for the gathering, analysis and publishing of health and care information, and for delivering the crucial IT infrastructure and applications that support the NHS and Social Care. As such, we play a key role in driving the speed and efficiency of these services and, ultimately, the delivery of better patient care.
About the roles
This is your chance to join an exemplar in agile development within the public sector and work on projects across multiple technologies. Take this technical role, and you will be responsible for the test and assurance of core software packages while working closely with wider testing colleagues to achieve the accreditation of releases.
It’s a hands-on opportunity involving developing and reviewing assurance and risk documentation, writing and maintaining test scenarios and test cases, manually running test scripts, managing defects and issues and recording and preserving test evidence. Succeed, and you will support the improvement of health and social care outcomes.
We are currently recruiting for a number of roles. You can find out more at our open evening at the Novotel Leeds on 26 June 5.30 to 8.00pm. It’s an excellent opportunity to listen to HSCIC speakers and a speaker from Basho Technologies, talk about the roles with members of our team, and network with other attendees.

About you

A strong communicator, able to choose your content and style to suit the audience, you will be motivated by the chance to make a difference.
About the rewards
In addition to a competitive salary you can look forward to a full range of public sector benefits, including an excellent contributory pension scheme, generous holiday entitlement and various flexible working options.
