You’ve probably heard of Autotrader, but do you know what we’re all about?
We’re the UK’s leading automotive marketplace, a heritage brand, and a tech darling of the stock market. We bring together vehicle buyers and sellers to give them real choices. Cars may be what we're best known for but we’re also the place for pretty much everything else on wheels, from e-bikes to caravans.
In the automotive world, change is a constant, that’s why we take our job of untangling the complex car-buying journey very seriously.
At our core, we’re all about people. We go our own way while embracing diversity and celebrating our differences. We dedicate ourselves to the idea that we work better together.
Autotrader is a beautiful, surprising and vibrant place to work. We might not be for everyone, but we could be perfect for you.
We're looking for an experienced Test Engineer to help us enhance the consumer experience for millions of visitors to the UK's leading automotive marketplace. This role combines both manual and automation testing, playing a crucial part in ensuring the quality and reliability of our products. Our Test Engineers work in cross-functional workstreams with developers, product leads, and designers, so you will be collaborating in a team with diverse skill sets and personalities. Our teams work together to develop insight-driven, market-leading digital products and services. You will curate a robust test automation suite to support the continuous delivery of our microservices and micro frontends. These include UI, integration, contract and smoke tests in Typescript or Java. You’ll also promote good testing practices and incorporate improvements into existing processes within the wider Autotrader engineering community. Together we share insights, learn from each other and overcome common challenges through regular showcases and feedback sessions.
You might assume that our name, "Autotrader," means you must be a car enthusiast to work here. But that's not the case. We're looking for people who are passionate about their work and thrive in a collaborative environment.
During our application process, you will be asked two questions to help us learn more about you and how you align with our values. These will be used as part of our selection criteria, to determine if we progress your application further.
We’re offering a salary of £40,000 – £60,000, plus an additional 10% of your salary awarded to you in shares each year. These awarded shares will become yours in yearly instalments over the next three years, and you can choose to either sell them or keep them as shares. And you'll receive 28 days holiday, plus bank holidays and comprehensive private medical cover.
That’s not all. We have employee pension contributions up to 7%, enhanced family leave provisions, a car salary sacrifice scheme, share-save options, and much more.
We always want to give you the support you need and help prioritise your wellbeing, that’s why we provide access to 24/7 online GP and dentist, as well as specialist support for assisted fertility, gender dysphoria, menopause, period care plans and lots more.
On top of all that, our hybrid model, Connected Working, combines the best of both worlds – office and home working. You’ll have two fixed weekly office days for team collaboration and one more of your choice to suit your work-life balance.
Additionally, we have our remote-first periods at set times during summer and winter. During these periods, you can work remotely anywhere in the UK and from certain locations abroad.
