About the Role
Channel Performance delivers mystery shopping and performance measurement programmes that help clients understand customer experiences, identify opportunities and improve performance. As a QA Project Executive, you will play a fundamental role in the success of our Mystery Shopping business, ensuring the highest quality standards are achieved across our validation and quality assurance processes.
