The Role: The Bridge to Business Readiness
ServiceRocket is seeking a strategic and execution-focused professional services leader to guide and execute our User Acceptance Testing (UAT) and Business Readiness workstreams. This role is a critical function within the ServiceRocket methodology, bridging technical delivery, quality assurance, and user adoption
You will be the final arbiter of quality and functionality, ensuring that all solutions rigorously meet business requirements. More importantly, you will proactively partner with the Change Management workstream to ensure the business is not only trained on the how but has successfully validated the what before Go-Live.
Key Responsibilities: Integrating UAT and Change Management
As the leader of the UAT workstream, your responsibilities span strategic execution, quality assurance, and cross-functional readiness:
1. Core UAT Strategy and Execution
- Define Test Scenarios Aligned with Business Requirements: Partner with business analysts and solution architects to translate requirements into comprehensive, real-world test cases
- Plan and Execute Test Cases & Scenarios: Develop the overall UAT strategy, detailed plans, timelines, and resourcing models required for successful execution
- Prepare Test Environment and Data: Oversee the setup of the dedicated UAT environment and the preparation of representative test data
- Execute Tests, Log Results, and Fix Defects: Lead the execution of UAT, managing the testing schedule, coordinating business testers, and ensuring all results are accurately logged and defects are triaged and prioritized
- Capture and Prioritize Feedback/Defects: Implement a rigorous defect management process, collaborating with technical teams for timely resolution
- Validate Migration Outcomes against Requirements: For migration projects, define the validation matrix to confirm successful data and functionality transfer
2. Alignment with Change Management
- Test Readiness and Training Validation: Integrate the UAT process with the Change Management workstream. Use UAT testing cycles to validate the effectiveness of training materials and enablement sessions (e.g., test scripts should mirror training content)
- Feedback Loop for Adoption: Ensure UAT testers are properly debriefed to capture early feedback on user experience, process friction, and potential adoption roadblocks. Communicate these findings directly to the Change Management Lead for inclusion in resistance management and communications plans
- Risk Mitigation: Proactively report UAT status and defect trends to the Change Management team, allowing them to adjust communications and resistance management strategies based on technical risks identified during testing
- Attention to Detail and Analytical Skills: Use analytical skills to report not just on defects, but on the business process gaps uncovered during UAT, providing data-driven insight back to the consulting team
3. Governance and Final Sign-Off
- Obtain Final Business Sign-Off for Go-Live: Own the formal process for achieving final UAT sign-off. Present clear, data-driven evidence to executive stakeholders that the solution meets all business acceptance criteria and is ready for production deployment
- Business Readiness Confirmation: Collaborate with the Change Management Lead to confirm that both the system (via UAT sign-off) and the people (via training and adoption readiness checks) are prepared for the transition.4. Client Relationship and Success Management
- Manage Customer Relationships and Stakeholder Alignment: Act as a primary point of contact for key business stakeholders during UAT, maintaining strong, collaborative relationships throughout the workstream
- Customer Success Criteria Management: Actively partner with the customer to define, track, and ensure alignment with stated business success criteria and key performance indicators (KPIs) beyond initial UAT sign-off, ensuring the delivered solution drives expected business value
- Post-Go-Live Feedback Loop: Institute a structured process for gathering post-deployment feedback from business users to identify areas for optimization and ongoing service opportunities
Required Experience and Competencies
- 8 - 15 years of progressive experience in technology consulting, quality assurance, or project delivery, with a minimum of 5 years specialising in leading large-scale UAT or functional testing workstreams
- Demonstrated experience working closely with Change Management teams to drive holistic project success
- Expertise in structured testing methodologies, defect tracking, and test management best practices, ideally within the Atlassian ecosystem (Jira)
- Exceptional leadership, communication, and executive-level presentation skills, with demonstrated ability to drive consensus and achieve sign-off from diverse stakeholders.
