We're Virgin Australia, an airline that's always done things a little different. Our way. The Virgin way.

We're on a mission to make flying better than 'nice'. And to do that, it takes a team of talented people who are passionate about customer experience, doing the right thing always, with a focus on safety – in the air, on the ground and in our workplaces.

A team who values real diversity and inclusion, in a big brand with big ambitions.

Candidates must be Brisbane based, or willing to relocate for this position.

This role involves developing testing strategies, providing leadership and governance, and ensuring seamless planning and execution of manual and automated testing.

Key responsibilities include troubleshooting, documenting, and executing test cases as needed.

The Senior Test Manager will also coach junior test analysts, guide test managers and leads, and coordinate teams to ensure successful project outcomes.

We're looking for someone with:

  • A degree in IT, Computer Science, or equivalent experience.
  • ISTQB certification in Software Testing.
  • 10+ years of testing experience, including 5+ years in senior roles.
  • Skilled in manual and automated testing across Agile and Waterfall projects.
  • Proficient in tools like Jira, Confluence, and qMetry.
  • Strong leadership, communication, and stakeholder management skills.
  • Excellent problem-solving, time management, and decision-making abilities.
  • Solid understanding of SDLC and testing methods (manual, automated, performance).
  • An analytical mindset with the ability to use data for insights and decisions.

We offer:

  • Heavily discounted air travel for you and your loved ones.
  • Flexible working arrangements.
  • Discounts on travel insurance, car hire, accommodation, and experiences worldwide.
  • Discounted Virgin Australia Lounge membership.
  • Hospitality, retail, technology, beauty services, and wellness discounts.
  • Wellness support, including the BetterMe digital wellbeing platform.
  • Dress for Your Day – enjoy the freedom to wear whatever is appropriate for the type of work you do.

We welcome applications from Indigenous Australians, people with disability, those from diverse cultural backgrounds, our friends in the LGBTIQ+ community, and anyone else who wants to join us.

We believe everyone deserves equal opportunities and respect.
