Games Testers! Have you always wanted to work in the games industry? Now's your chance!

Codemasters are currently looking to take on Games Testers - professionally known as QA Technicians to join our onsite Quality Assurance Team in Southam, Warwickshire, UK. We cannot take agency applications for this role so please apply direct.

The role is:

• A temporary, fixed length contract.

• Based at our Southam HQ in Warwickshire (though due to Corona we might ask you to commence from home).
• Note that we do not routinely offer part time hours or remote working for this role.
• Start dates from January 2021 through to Spring.

The location of this role is at our Southam Studio in Warwickshire and this is a Contractual requirement.
