It’s the people that make QA, whether they are contributing in training delivery, IT, sales, marketing, finance or data analysis. Let these employees tell you in their own words why you should come work with us.
"What I value most are the people and the opportunity I've been given for growth & development.... QA have excelled at providing a fun and rewarding culture and I get to work with some of the best people in the industry every day."

I have spent many years at QA and it feels like I have worked for half a dozen different businesses in more than a dozen different roles. The people have consistently been great, as has the impact we have been able to have on communities, learners and clients.

The QA Spirit
Our people and QA Spirit define us, it's what make us unique, and we hold regular Spirit awards to recognise our people who most embody the QA Spirit.
Women in tech
QA is on a mission to increase the number of women in tech. We’re working on a number of initiatives with inspirational organisations to help address the gender imbalance in the industry, including all-female tech skills bootcamps.
"We embrace diversity and inclusion in all aspects of our business. Just 26% of employees working in tech are women and QA is actively working to address this gender imbalance – both with the learners we train and the people we employ."
