The client is looking for an end-to-end testing manager who can oversee the full testing strategy for a transformation program, not someone who just executes test cases or is an expert in a single tool. This role is more of a leadership position: defining and overseeing the strategy, planning validation waves, coordinating dependencies between teams and vendors, and producing progress and risk indicators for management. Recurring words (full strategy, oversee, coordinate, end-to-end, multi-systems, multiple waves) point to an expectation of seniority and decision-making autonomy rather than just execution. The Salesforce, FNA environment and cross-functional integrations place the mandate in a CRM and distribution ecosystem. The candidate must be able to understand these issues without being a developer on these platforms.
The multi-team and multi-vendor context makes the ability to coordinate and influence business and IT stakeholders central to the profile.
