“Ben joined Control F1 as Senior Quality Analyst, already with a wealth of experience but also with infectious enthusiasm, attention to detail and the true desire to learn new skills and take on more responsibility. He swiftly progressed to head up a team of Test Analysts after the business was acquired, and performed fantastically at it. Ben works will with colleagues at all levels and customers alike and cares deeply about delivering truly high-quality software solutions. I have zero hesitation in recommending Ben to any prospective employer.”

Ben introduced a successful formal test process to the company, giving great benefits to the company. Ben skills within the testing environment are second to none. He is able to communicate on technical terms with the development team, while the same time he is just as happy talking to business users. I would highly recommend Ben and would be very happy to work with him again.”

He copes with challenges extremely well and is happy to get his hands dirty when needed. Ben would be an asset to any organisation and/or client. ”

“I really can't recommend Ben highly enough. I have worked with Ben for two years on a number of projects for high profile clients. His knowledge of testing is second to none and he always went the extra mile to make sure we shipped a quality product to our clients. Leading the test team, liaising with clients, arguing the case for quality with developers, you name it he can do it. Never content to rest on his laurels and is always looking to learn new things to enable him to be the best test lead he can be. If you are thinking of hiring him then you should you won't regret it.”

Ben is very passionate about Software Testing both Manual and Automation and his quality of work and communication is second to none. As a Manager Ben was always very supportive through good and bad times. He is a brilliant leader, mentor and a team player, and he know's how to deal with critical situations swiftly. I had a fantastic time working with Ben and I hope to work with him again in the future and he will be a valuable asset for any QA/Test team.”

“I hired Ben to join the test team at CF1. Ben primarily worked remotely, and came to the office as and when required. This worked really well for both the company and Ben. It's been fantastic watching Ben's testing skills grow and to see him take leadership positions in test teams. Ben will make a great addition to any test team and I wouldn't hesitate to work with him again. ”
